Per the latest datasheet from Atmel's official website, 0xFFFFFD60 is GPBR base address for SAM9XE
0xFFFFFD50 is GPBR base address for SAM9260.

We'd use this for official EK board and forget Eng samples.

If you want to distinguish different chip revision, DBGU_CIDR and DBGU_EXID may help.

BR,
Eric
