I looked in more detail, and now understand better the SPL vs uboot division.
The vendor code I was referring to above is SPL code.
Since we are still using the same SPL as before, it means that MPLL
and memory is already set up by the time the real/new uboot loads.
So I think there should be no need to modify MPLL, and I wonder if
most of the other clock configuration code in your patches is also
unnecessary.
Thoughts?
Thanks
