What does the TI122X_SCR_P2CCLK bit do?

The printk which you're adding is ambiguous. Does it mean that the clock
is already generated by the internal oscillator, or that it is not, and
that the kernel is now arranging for it to be generated by the internal
oscillator?

What did the BIOS actually do? Did it enable an external oscillator when
the motherboard doesn't actually connect an oscillator to the
external-oscillator pin? Or what?

So. Please generally tell us (completely) what the problem is, and how
this patch attempts to fix it. Please also fully explain why we cannot
fix this problem without resorting to a config option, because avoiding
the config option is highly desirable.

Please bear in mind that this part of the kernel is effectively
unmaintained, so poor ignorant people like me need to try to look after it
so I need to be carefully educated about what's going on.

Thanks.
