I have more informations about the problem : freeze only occurs when I 
disable MMC device support (CONFIG_MMC_MXC=n).
I don't know why these two drivers affect each other (except that CSPI 
for MC13783 and SDHC use the same PERDIV1 clock).
So I enable it back and try put a "return 0" in mxcmmc.c (only for debug 
purpose) as following :

So I supposed that there is a problem in clock definition but I don't 
now how to solve it. I try to replace in clk-imx27.c
clk_register_clkdev(clk[ssi1_ipg_gate], NULL, "imx-ssi.0");
by
clk_register_clkdev(clk[ssi1_ipg_gate], "ipg", "imx-ssi.0");

and in imx-ssi.c in imx_ssi_probe(), replaced
ssi->clk = devm_clk_get(&pdev->dev, "ipg");
by
ssi->clk = devm_clk_get(&pdev->dev, "ipg");

This has no effect. I don't fully know how clock mechanism for imx27 
works so I am not able to solve this problem and send a patch.
