Ok, I will add these comments in the next patch revision.

I was not aware of this limitation and AFAIK mainline has currently
no code to handle it. I also cannot find any code to handle this in
Hardkernel's vendor kernel for Odroid-XU3 board.

Do you know whether this problem exists also on Exynos5422/5800
SoCs or only on Exynos5420 one? I see that ChromiumOS uses virtual
regulator code also on Exynos5800 SoC based Peach Pi board but was
the problem actually present on this board?

[ I added Arjun to Cc:, maybe he can help in explaining this issue
(unfortunately Inderpal's email is no longer working). ]

Please also note that on Exynos5422/5800 SoCs the same ARM rail
voltage is used for 1.9 GHz & 2.0 GHz OPPs as for the 1.8 GHz one.
IOW if the problem exists it is already present in the mainline
kernel.

Best regards,
