Right, but isn't this has been already fixed in kernel:
3d6271f (mfd: Turn on the twl4030-madc MADC clock)

$ git describe 3d6271f
v3.1-13-g3d6271f

We would really appreciate if someone from TI (Tom?) can confirm that this is a bug in ROM code.
Nevertheless, I don't think U-Boot uses MADC feature (am I right?),
so IMO, kernel has to be fixed (I think already fixed) to not rely
on ROM/U-Boot setup of that MADC clock.
