It is not bound to amount of planes at all, I tried reducing N_PLANES to 1 even in that 
test - with same result.
Regarding power consumption concerns, thats true, of course if we figure out some other
solution, without CDCLK increase, that one should be used then.
I'm now discussing the issue with HW team.

Otherwise we just need to decide, whats more important. I think frequent FIFO underruns
would be anyway more visible to the customer, than some energy consumption increase.
