There are reports for that happening on the kernel side as well: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2018-July/588288.html (also see the follow-ups) I suspect the TVAL access is affected as well (this internally accesses the counter), so we would need to cover this also. I'd suggest we wait for the kernel side solution and then copy that, but we keep this patch here in, as it seems to fix far more frequent problems. Btw: I tried to use the Freescale workaround in U-Boot, but this at least requires another patch: to fix the problem when the CPU runs at 24MHz. Also it doesn't really help the MMC issue (I saw the same crashes), as it doesn't cover forward jumps.
