These results looks excellent - thanks for sharing the test results!
Could you please check one last thing:
$ grep -i adc /sys/kernel/debug/meson-clk-msr/measure_summary
It should confirm that the clock rate is 375kHz (or close to it, SoC
internal clock measurement is not 100% precise)

Once we have that confirmation: can you please re-send the patch with
the description updated so it's clear which SoC generations are
affected and by stating that the fix was tested on a Meson8b Odroid-C1
board.


Thank you and best regards,
Martin
