I didn't reply earlier as I had nothing more to say and Sumit's
initial approach was correct. Maybe I should have I have clarified
this then.

The OPP core supports dev_pm_opp_set_rate() only for devices that can
set the rate, for everything else dev_pm_opp_set_opp() is the right
choice. I suggested dev_pm_opp_set_rate() earlier as I thought rate is
supported here.
