The intent was we are not always sure what exact behavior the caller desires.

Option1: (currently implemented)
Opp_get_volt(opp_find_freq_exact/opp_find_freq_floor/opp_find_freq_ceil(type, 
freq)

Option2:
Opp_get_volt_freq_exact(freq);
Opp_get_volt_freq_ceil(freq);
Opp_get_volt_freq_floor(freq);

The intent is if we don't really care about the opp structure, choose the 
nature of the search and plug it straight to get_volt.

Why would we want to do this?

A voltage could be linked to 1 or more frequencies. OPP layer functions 
based on some sort of unique identifier. We aligned earlier this year(jan if 
I recollect), that frequency is the common unique identifier, is there a 
Reason that this is not good enough?
