Indeed, for those oxides there is no need for p1/2. Put a zero in the line 
with 'number of atoms for which RLO is needed', and delete the subsequent 
line(s) with linearizatio energies:

 4  1  0                      llmax,ipr,kpot
 -10.0000   1.50000           emin,emax (output energy window)
   0.  0.  1.                 direction of magnetization (lattice vectors)
 0                            number of atoms for which RLO is added
 0 0 0 0 0                    number of atoms for which SO is switch off; 
atoms
