OK thanks.

Yup, this is the pruss target-module@300000 that has the first reg at
4a326000. The oops look very similar to what I was seeing with my bbb.
The external abort means the pruss module is not properly enabled when
accessing the registers.

Not sure what might be different here, presumably all am335x hardware has
the pruss. Maybe try with a larger ti,sysc-delay-us value? I doubt that
helps though as 2 is the most we've seen so far for the delay needed..

Maybe the issue is in omap_reset_deassert(). You could try adding some
printk to omap_reset_deassert() and see if the issue happens right away
or after deasserting the reset. If it's after deasserting the reset, you
could adding delay to the end of omap_reset_deassert() and see if that
helps.
