That advisory has two workarounds. You have chosen the second one?

The text of the second workaround says it only works on 4 wire setups,
so I wonder how 5 wire designs will be affected.

No, it doesn't say that. (sprz360f.pdf)

FWIW, I implemented the first workaround and removed the udelay not
too long ago. Like Sebastian, I saw the TSC unit hang after about
50000 interrupts when running with the workaround.

Did you test you patch for very long?

Thanks,
