 This is due to this commit in the DTS :
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/4d8b032d3c03f4e9788a18bbb51b10e6c9e8a56b

 For a quick fix you can edit the DTS, revert this and recompile it.
 (from a FreeBSD machine exec this from /usr/src :
MACHINE=arm sh sys/tools/fdt/make_dtb.sh `pwd`/sys
sys/gnu/dts/arm/am335x-boneblack.dts . )

 Someone will need to fix this in
our cpsw driver.
