What is your idea for replacement of virtual OPPs?

Especially on OMAP2 they were useful with tightly coupled clock sets.  Some 
later versions of 2420 were characterized such that some of the dependencies 
could be ignored but that is not the case for all of them.  The centerline 
design as I understand it wasn't for this. It just happened that enough margin 
was there in some binn'ed lots to do this.
