You see ... I'm starting to understand what is actually going wrong. The 
lowlevel_init.S is bloated with crap (why? why can't that be in cpu init C code 
?) and there is this one part, where CBCDR is overwritten with a configurable 
value instead of hardcoded value.

No documentation about that at all, but it's there ... and that's -- amongst 
other bugs -- my problem I assume. So I need to set this CONFIG_SYS_CLKTL_CBCDR 
to another magic value, now I get it.

Yea ... it's configurable via some undocumented macro in assembler code. Damn.

Can you please comment on the other patches?

Thanks
