Probably, but I don't know which revisions are OK and which are not. Errata document:

	Marvell® PXA270M Processor Specification Update
	MV-S900957-00

has only 3 revisions, but PXA Manual lists 6 (2.2.5.1 Processor ID Register) and one revision from errata is not shown in my PXA Manual. I can exclude mine revision (from "system_rev" variable), but there should be some warning somewhere in configuration.


BTW There is software workaround, but I was not able to set registers right (it requires to send some data through FIFO in different mode).
