Hi,
Commit 5387b093 was a fix for early_init_done causing issues on Pogo v4 [1]. The fix breaks armada-388-clearfog because the boot hangs indefinitely.
It appears that the cause is an infinite loop in __udelay due to get_ticks() always returning 0. After adding some printf statements it became apparent that the timer was never getting initialised.
git-blame identified the "timer: orion-timer: Fix problem with early static variable" patch as a likely issue. Reverting the commit restores boot for armada-388-clearfog.
Did you build this clearfog board as is? i.e. did you make any change in the clearfog_defconfig?
Thanks, Tony

Patching the issue is a bit beyond me without understanding the Pogo v4 issue, but I'm happy to test any patches that are developed.
Regards
Martin
