Workaround 1: Disable dynamic frequency change by programing DFS_ENABLE = 0

Workaround 2:

If switching frequency, program the register field values as follows:

if (old_freq/new_freq >= 7) {
if (PBR_EN==1) { // Per-bank refresh is enabled

AREF_HIGH_THRESHOLD = 19 AREF_NORM_THRESHOLD = 18 AREF_PBR_CONT_EN_THRESHOLD = 1 AREF_CMD_MAX_PER_TREF = 8
