These boards are really old now and so I don't really have any that we 
can ship. It would be great to get this change merged as I see that it 
is needed for RT support. I could see if I can resurrect a Tegra124 
Jetson TK1 and test again on that to see if we can get some logs.

Thierry, do you have a Tegra124 Jetson TK1 handy to test this change on?
