Hey Stephen,

Looks like the "Unnoticed in current code" is not accurate. For certain
compiler/kernel version combinations that can be triggered without the
rest of the patchset. Apparently the default yocto gcc used by our BSP &
v6.0-rcN does the trick...

Could you take this one patch onto clk-fixes or would you like me to
resend individually?

Thanks,
Conor.
