On SAMA7G5 the prescaler part of master clock has been implemented as a changeable one. Everytime the prescaler is changed the PMC_SR.MCKRDY bit must be polled. Value 1 for PMC_SR.MCKRDY means the prescaler update is done. Driver polls for this bit until it becomes 1. On SAMA7G5 it has been discovered that in some conditions the PMC_SR.MCKRDY is not rising but the rate it provides it's stable. The workaround is to add a timeout when polling for PMC_SR.MCKRDY. At the moment, for SAMA7G5, the prescaler will be removed from Linux clock tree as all the frequencies for CPU could be obtained from PLL and also there will be less overhead when changing frequency via DVFS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
