i think i must correct myself. The fixed apb should stay since there is no
dynamic replacement and a proper disabling of plld shouldn't cause this freeze.

I have the suspicion the freeze is caused by a clock glitch or lock-up.

Could you please revert your changes and apply the attached patch? Maybe we can
see more.
