In light of Russell's recent comment (re i.MX fixes) on Linus' standard
for -rc7, I'd like to clarify the above.

While only one user reported the above problems (Simon Baatz), it was
caused by compiling v3.8-rc5 with the debian kernel config.  This config
builds almost everything it can as a module.

I'd like to do a v2 of this pull request since it was pointed out to me
this morning that I missed a clock-frequency in
kirkwood-ns2-common.dtsi.

Does the above meet the metric Linus has set for -rc7?  I think so, but
I leave that up to you guys.

If so, I'll redo these four patches to explicitly say they fix boot
problems caused when using debians default kernel config.

thx,

Jason.
