Hi Christian,

I took some time to recall what I did by patching FSP:

- search in every PE32 and TE image section for binary sequence
81c9000100008908c6460e01
and change to
81c9000102008908c6460e00

- then replace them in-place

The difference can be better understand if disassemblies are compared, eg:
  Disassembly of section .data:
@@ -3367,9 +3367,9 @@
      25fc:    05 00 05 00 00           add    $0x500,%eax
      2601:    8b 08                    mov    (%eax),%ecx
      2603:    81 e1 ff ff f8 ff        and    $0xfff8ffff,%ecx
-    2609:    81 c9 00 01 00 00        or     $0x100,%ecx
+    2609:    81 c9 00 01 02 00        or     $0x20100,%ecx
What I did here is setting BAUDSEL to SYS_25MHz.

      260f:    89 08                    mov    %ecx,(%eax)
-    2611:    c6 46 0e 01              movb   $0x1,0xe(%esi)
+    2611:    c6 46 0e 00              movb   $0x0,0xe(%esi)
Can't recall why I did this, maybe bypassing PLL altogether?

      2615:    c6 46 0f 00              movb   $0x0,0xf(%esi)
      2619:    c6 46 03 83              movb   $0x83,0x3(%esi)
      261d:    c6 46 01 00              movb   $0x0,0x1(%esi)

Since I don't rely on Topcliff UART for output, the baud rate 
recalculation is all skipped.
