Well git log says so:

...
    pxa2xx/cpufreq: Fix PCMCIA frequency scaling
    
    The MCxx values must be based off memory clock, not CPU core clock.
    
    This also fixes the bug where on some machines the LCD went crazy while using
    PCMCIA.

At least it's your tree that I've been testing ;).
