Hi Mike, Tomeu

This has a problem. You are making an assumption about the initial
state. The way the hardware works, is you change the state of the
clock and then perform a Wait For Interrupt. Once the hardware has
finished adjusting its PLL, it raises an interrupt and things
continue.

However, if you don't cause an actual state change, the WFI never
returns. If this assumption is wrong, your box is dead the first time
it tries to change cpu frequency.

This is why the code reads the hardware register to find the real
current state, rather than assume it.
