I wonder who granted you to go on holidays given that we have
problems :-)

> Can you confirm you have both SAIF interfaces being clocked from ref_pll?

root at hostname:/sys/kernel/debug/clk find -name saif?_sel
./ref_xtal/pll0/saif0_sel
./ref_xtal/pll0/saif1_sel

root at hostname:/sys/kernel/debug/clk cat ./ref_xtal/pll0/saif?_sel/clk_rate 
480000000
480000000

This is based on 3.10 (but I hope to update soon to 4.4ish). I know that
Lothar uses 4.4. Also Lothar noticed that disabling one of these
saif_sel clocks doesn't make an impression on the interfaces, they just
continue to run. Maybe a clock is routed in a wrong way?

Uwe
