My assumption was that the devicetree file is correct, and that it would match
the devicetree file in the actual devices. I since noticed that the file is
widely incomplete when comparing it with the various downstream versions,
so that was obviously wrong. Also, my change seemed odd, but then I did
not know how such situations are supposed to be handled.
Also, it looks like the devicetree file needs to be changed anyway unless something
else is wrong, because booting Linux still stalls later. Presumably that is because
the reference clock is missing in the upstream devicetree file (the serial port clock
frequency is reported as 0). Given this, fixing the devicetree files seems to be the
way to go.
Thanks,
Guenter
