I wonder if you're running into the locked RTC problem on the m1575.
The version of u-boot that I'm using (recent pull from
opensource.freescale.com) has a workaround for that.  Can you verify if
this is the problem?

For the benefit of those who aren't aware of the problem, the RTC on the
m1575 is locked on boot until PCI memory space is read.

Maybe we should put the workaround in the kernel instead.  Any opinions?
