If so, then yes, trying to switch to the 24MHz oscillator before
applying the factors, and then switching back when the PLL is stable
would be a nice solution.

I just checked, and all the SoCs we've had so far have that
possibility, so if it works, for now, I'd like to stick to that.

It would need to be tested. U-boot does the change only once, while the
kernel would be doing it all the time and between various frequencies
and PLL settings. So the issues may show up with this solution too.

I don't think this is a good idea: the CPU clock may be changed at any
time with the CPUFreq governor. I don't see the system moving from
1008MHz to 24MHz and then to 1200MHz when some computation is needed!

PLL lock time is around 10-20us, I'd guess based on the number of loops
in the PLL lock wait loop. So unless you'll be switching frequencies
many times per second, this should be barely noticeable.

But I'd like a different solution too.

Do you have a patch to test this?

For me changing CPU frequency on Orange Pi One always locks up the
system. I keep running it on the u-boot setup 1.08GHz at 1.1V

Thanks
