I do not. The RM lists 3850_0000 - 386F_FFFF, so I should have put an
extra 0 in there. Sorry about that. I will fix in the next rev.

You are right. I looked at the clocking from the downstream tree to
see what their clocks were, and it didn't occur to me to double check
against the datasheet.

I'll update both and submit a V2.
