Hi,

the file "arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ps3.dts" contains this comment:
/* dtc expects a clock-frequency and timebase-frequency entries, so
  * we'll put a null entries here.  These will be initialized after
  * startup with data from lv1.
  */

This however doesn't seem to happen:
# xxd clock-frequency
0000000: 0000 0000                                ....
# xxd timebase-frequency
0000000: 0000 0000                                ....

Tested on F12 with Geoff's git kernel:
# uname -a
Linux ps3.local 2.6.33-rc7 #1 SMP Mon Feb 15 11:20:02 CET 2010 ppc64
ppc64 ppc64 GNU/Linux


Regards,
Dominik
