Yes, I just verified that the bug occurs on LCDK with patches from this series.

The OHCI driver doesn't register any cpufreq transition notifier
callbacks. I can't really find anything in the datasheet, but I'm
wondering if we shouldn't do something similar to what the driver for
davinci i2c controller does. I'll try a couple things tomorrow.
