Thanks to the L3 log error:

I guess that I understand why I was not releasing the hardreset at boot time
before:-)

DSP and CortexM3 cannot be released from reset until someone loaded a firmware
in memory. Otherwise they will start executing some random instructions that
in this case are trying to access an area that is not accessible.

We have to let the driver handle the hardreset because it is mainly used for
processors.

Currently we're not asserting hardreset in the hwmod code during _reset().

Ooops, you're right we were talking about asserting the reset not de-asserting it.

I had that patch in the series at some point, but took it out before
posting it.  So maybe that might resolve this particular issue.  Also
sounds like we should make sure that we keep the processor IPs in
hardreset until some driver explicitly releases it; we'll need to make
sure the code does that too.

So maybe in that case, this is because the reset line is already de-asserted by the fast boot and by enabling the clock we start executing some random code in the CortexM3... but this is still weird that this error was not happening before.

Benoit
