Comments?

Peter> E.G. on a 8347 board a bootup time increase of ~600ms has been observed:
Peter> 0.020 CPU: e300c1, MPC8347_PBGA_EA, Rev: 3.0 at 400 MHz, CSB: 266.667 MHz
Peter> 0.168 RS: 232
Peter> 0.172 I2C: ready
Peter> 0.176 DRAM: 64 MB
Peter> 1.236 FLASH: 32 MB
Peter> Versus:
Peter> 0.016 CPU: e300c1, MPC8347_PBGA_EA, Rev: 3.0 at 400 MHz, CSB: 266.667 MHz
Peter> 0.092 RS: 232
Peter> 0.092 I2C: ready
Peter> 0.096 DRAM: 64 MB
Peter> 0.644 FLASH: 32 MB
Peter> Fix it by introducing CONFIG_SYS_LCRR_EARLY, and set LCRR in cpu_init_f
Peter> instead of in cpu_init_r if set.
