This is the worst one since it's the origin of all thermal problems with 
Orange Pis and the result of product marketing: Advertising the H3 to be 
able to run at "up to 1.6Ghz". All Steven did was to increase clockspeeds 
and to adjust the Vcore voltage of the two available operting points in the 
dvs table he took from Draco by 200mV (to be able to reach the 
extremity_freq as scaling_max_freq).

And the result is that everyone using OS images for H3 based Orange Pi 
models has to suffer from heat/stability problems. When you replace this 
moronic dvfs table with something sane (a few more operating points and not 
only 2 already exceeding the recommended maximum values), you won't even 
need a heatsink:

With Xunlong's dvfs settings switching between 1.2 Ghz and 1.56 GHz *while 
being idle* the SoC's temperature increases by 12°C.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I can fire up cpuburn-a7 running on 
all 4 CPU cores at 1.2Ghz on my Orange Pi PC without thermal throttling, 
without CPU cores being dropped and also without heatsink/fan attached. Can 
please anyone explain to me what's wrong with my Orange Pi?
