Hi Greg.

No it doesn't solve the issue by reverting the commit. The commit
isn't the regression, but it attempts to handle it in the if/else
statement. Everything starts to work again if we hard code it to
"mcspi->ref_clk_hz = OMAP2_MCSPI_MAX_FREQ;", so it seems like the if
else statement isn't 100% foolproof (or we have missed a setting in
the device tree).

Thanks
