This errata (i202) is applicable to all devices from OMAP2430 to 
OMAP4460 (apparently this one is not getting fixed). So could you make 
sure this is enabled for 2430, 3430, 3630, 4430 and 4460?

We should update the comment to be "Work Around for Errata i202 (2430, 
3430, 3630, 4430 and 4460)". The "1.12" and "1.6" are just the section 
references in the errata docs, but I think that you can drop these as 
you can just search for the errata ID which is i202.

Cheers
