PROCESSOR-SDK-AM64X: TMDS64EVM: MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM64X v09.02.00.50: SBL_OSPI Trouble

Part Number: PROCESSOR-SDK-AM64X
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDS64EVM, SYSCONFIG

This is a direct follow-up to the locked thread here: https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/1326966/processor-sdk-am64x-tmds64evm-mcu-plus-sdk-am64x-v09-01-00-41-sbl_ospi-trouble

I tried the patch Prashant shared using MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM64X v09.01.00.41 and I didn't notice any significant change in behavior. My TMDS64EVM still failed to boot the appimage from the OSPI NOR Flash on some boots (I tried all the methods of reset we discussed). Was the patch fully copied over or was there something missing by chance?

Since there was a new MCU+ SDK available, I gave this a try again using MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM64X v09.02.00.50. Unfortunately, it looks like all the same issues I encountered with v09.01.00.41 (discussed in the parent thread) are still present, ie I get this booting the default ospi_sbl and helloworld (no changes):

Hello World!

I saw some successful boots but the percentage was really low.

Applying Prashant's patch didn't make a difference with v09.02.00.50 either:
