The comment above this function needs updating I think.

Other than that, I tried a backport of this on a Pixel 3 with Snapdragon
845 (which is relevant because it has tons of OPPs, so starting at 128
makes it ramp up faster) to check the impact on power, but the only
differences appeared to be in the noise margin, so it's all good :)
Full test results available at [1]. Note that I did enable the iowait
boost feature for these tests -- it is disabled by default on P3 ...
Thanks,
Quentin
