Apparently not if it does not work or else you somehow have a different
configuration for GPMC.

Oh so you mean it only works on am335x if CONFIG_OMAP_GPMC_DEBUG is set?

Interesting, never heard of that one before.

We could add a custom hwmod reset function that sets GPMC_CONFIG to 0.
Similar to omap_i2c_reset() is set up. Or we could set up a property for
the wait pin polarity. Roger, got any better ideas?
