I tested this yesterday on RB1/RB2, RB5 and saw no improvement, so was wondering why exactly is this needed and which platforms are impacted. > Personally I don't see much of a risk: If enabling the clock doesn't > actually enable the BAM controller, then the clock probably does not > belong to the BAM in the first place... :) Right, but I think the commit message needs a bit more clarity to reflect that it is now proposed to check for the bam_clk presence earlier in the _probe flow (as compared to earlier). Thanks.
