I'm attempting to see if this ROM bug is (a) known and (b) is or was
fixed at some point.  Based on what I know (or at least think I know) of
how the ROM code lived for "OMAP3", given that you're seeing this on
beagle and igep, it's a valid assumption that OMAP34XX is buggy.  The
question I have (and hope for resolution on) is if it's a problem on
am335x/omap4 or later as well.  If I follow how to reproduce this issue
(and I think I do), assuming I can I'll setup an am335x platform in a
similar position.

Yes, thanks for working this issue through, I also appreciate it!
