My initial recollection is that this bit twiddling needs to be done any time the clock is touched, so it's not just one-time setup.  I'll ask the guys about it and get back to you.

The 64k bar0 suppression is just cosmetic, but I don't see anything in the public specs suggesting that there is a max limit on the size of the bar... not sure that it's appropriate to give a warning on it for *any* device, but it's absolutely incorrect for this device.
