You've made a fundamental change here in that this can now be a list
of phandles. There should be some description on what a list means
(merge the tables?, select one?).

I think this needs to have a defined order and the platform should
know what that is. For example, if you read the efuses and decide you
need the "slow" table, you know to pick the first entry. Then you
don't need opp-name. Does that work for QCom?
