A ton of stuff can be abused in downstream code. We can't do anything
about that.

We just need to keep an eye on OPP table abuse in upstream (whether it
frequency or bw OPP).

Rob pointed out that the property isn't necessary because the device
binding should document which OPP table is used for what. That takes
care of my main concern of how do we know which OPP table is for what
path. So I'm dropping this patch.
