From c3c9b01efb50c691bacc4a9acc7abf69d5640eae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kevin O'Connor Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2010 11:00:25 +0000 Subject: Code must not access the smbus registers before the RTC power well is ready (PSON gating). Some boards boot faster than this power well stabilization, and thus see bad data when accessing the smbus registers.
