One the one hand it's a severe issue as the DDR ram gets overvolted by a fair bit and should be fixed by putting the correct voltage in the DT and getting this into stable. On the other hand this will prevent older kernels from working correctly as with 1,8V set on this rail the regulator driver will just plainly refuse to probe. Thinking again about this maybe it really the best thing to get the DT right first with CC stable and then changing the regulator driver and try and see if stable also accepts this patch. I don't really want to leave people with a supposedly working system, but constantly overvolting their RAM. > But is this a regression? If not, how far back in CC: stable should this > change go? This is not a regression. It was introduced with the original Colibri T20 commit and was caused by Toradex not providing any schematics for the Module plus me not physically checking this voltage rail before pushing things out.
