Exactly!
My first change (not sent to mailing list) is to remove the call of
"aspeed_set_clock_source(priv->regmap, 0)", instead, checking the clock
source, and use either 24M or the memory controller clock.
But that make things a bit more complicated and Aspeed suggests to use 24M
clock. So I sent this simplified change.
It's OK to not accept this change, the fix in DT will fix the issue as well.
Please drop this.
Thanks!
