Basically the patch looks good to me, but it might be good to have a 
testing round of sort with this. It can potentially cause regressions on 
multiple boards if the drivers happen to rely on the "broken" clock 
rates. Same for patch #2 which is a copy paste of this one, but only 
impacts TI boards.
