Essentially yes. Conceptually it doesn't seem like this change should cause any harm, however - This sounds like we are trying to work around the clk framework, which seems wrong. It feels like we should be able to set a clk flag for this and make the framework deal with it. Also, this fix is 10nm specific, yet this issue affects all implementations? Seems like this should perhaps be in common code so that we don't need to play whack-a-mole by fixing every implementation piecemeal. Finally, the PLLs are notorious for not taking a configuration unless they are running. I admit, I haven't looked at this patch in detail to determine if that is the case here, but there doesn't seem to be any indication from the commit test or a comment that doing so is actually valid in all cases.
