Clock frequency limits

I have a question regarding some discrepancies between the OMAP-L138 datasheet (SPRS586F) and the OMAP L138 clock calculation spreadsheet at http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Programming_PLL_Controllers_on_OMAP-L1x8/C674x/AM18xx.  I understand that the datasheet is the definitive source, but I'm wondering if I'm missing some information from the datasheet.  Here are my questions:

1. Datasheet table 5-5 says that the ASYNC1 domain can go up to 148 MHz at 1.2V and 1.3V if used in asynchronous (not SDRAM) mode.  The spreadsheet limits it to 100 MHz.  Is it ok to go up to 148 MHz if not using SDRAM on EMIFA, or are there other limitations?

2. Datasheet table 5-5 says that PLL1_SYSCLK1 can go up to 312 MHz at 1.2V and 1.3V.  The spreadsheet allows PLL1:SYSCLK1 to go up to 312 MHz, but then DDR_CLK and DDR_CLK_N are limited to 150 MHz on the DDR2_mDDR page.  I started looking around and the only reference I can find to a 150 MHz limitation in the datasheet is table 2-1 (and that limitation is for mDDR only).  That's kind of an odd place to put an important limit like that, so I wanted to clarify what the real limit was.

Thanks for any help you can give.
