Yes, I know that. What I don't know yet is what else should be reverted 
to fix the original issue other than applying  
e9b7086b80c4d9e354f4edc9e280ae85a60df408, which seems to introduce (or 
maybe 'exhibit' is a better word here) more bugs than it fixes.

This change really makes sense to me, however, knowing the initial 
(bootloader selected) clock rate my board boots at, which is 
unfortunately raw 12 MHz, I would be surprised if that helped.

Before e9b7086b80c4d9e354f4edc9e280ae85a60df408, 
omap1_select_table_rate() was returning the rate selected with .config 
because it was called early, with ck_dpll1_p->rate uninitialized. Now it 
is not, and returns nothing, resulting in 60 MHz default. Then, the only 
way I can see to correct the problem is something like patch 3/5, which 
you are justifiably affraid of of always switching to 216 MHz with 
omap1_defconfig.

Thanks,
Janusz
