Support for TPS is not yet in mainline kernel. you may want to do:

you could try running 'mw.w 0x4A31E05A 0x1' before bootm in u-boot ->
This will hack the pad of panda ES pin mean for controlling TPS voltage
register (again a kernel bug where the GPIO block setup by bootloader
got reset).

CPUfreq needs both voltage and frequency scaling to work and without
support of the TPS voltage scaling on vdd_MPU, you are stuck at boot
voltage, and just scaling frequency. with the not-enough boot voltage,
moving to higher frequencies can/will result in unpredictable behavior.
