Well I'm still wondering what would be the absolute minimal fixe(s)
for the -rc cycle?

Is the problem just that currently with omap1_defconfig boards boot at
the bootloader rate, or at the safe 60MHz unless the .config is changed?
If so, I think that's OK for now as fixing it properly requires what
this patch is doing.

Great, this looks like pretty much what I had in mind for the next
merge window! Just one comment below.

...

We should also now be able to remove all the CONFIG_OMAP_ARM_XXXMHZ options
too, right?
