We now have some more sane regulator ranges in git:
SM0: 725 - 1200 => 725 - 1300
SM1: 725 - 1200 => 725 - 1125
LDO2: 725 - 1200 => 725 - 1275
They now actually support the default voltage levels set by the DVFS.
Furthermore, do you have have any of the following options set the
same as I [my options being those with +, Ubuntu options are those
with -].

Especially those last 3 do things with memory, so it would be
helpful to know whether you also have them.
