I think it was some glitch that happened when the automatic clk gating
was enabled during a switch. The automatic clk gating didn't know that
software was running and switching the input so it killed the CPU and
stopped the clk. That lead to hangs and super badness. I assume it was
applicable to apq8064 as well because ipq8064 is basically apq8064 with
the multimedia subsystem replaced by the networking subsystem. Also I
wouldn't remember all these details because I worked on apq8064 but not
so much on ipq8064 :)
