I think this issue is relevant to am3517 as you can see from this thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.omap/97903
I could boot only with your patch http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg168865.html

I have such a system running, so if you have any other patches/ideas to test, I would do it.
