-The current implementation allows the user to specify the desired CPU
-clock value, in MHz, via an environment variable "cpuclk".
-
-Four compile-time constants are used:
-
- CONFIG_8xx_OSCLK - input quartz clock
- CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MIN - minimum allowed CPU clock
- CONFIG_SYS_8xx_CPUCLK_MAX - maximum allowed CPU clock
- CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT - default CPU clock value
-
-If the "cpuclk" environment variable value is within the CPUCLK_MIN /
-CPUCLK_MAX limits, the specified value is used. Otherwise, the
-default CPU clock value is set.
-
-Please make sure you understand what you are doing, and understand
-the restrictions of your hardware (board, processor). For example,
-ethernet will stop working for CPU clock frequencies below 25 MHz.
-
-Please note that the new clock-handling code is enabled if
-CONFIG_8xx_CPUCLK_DEFAULT is defined. Since this mechanism supports
-only MPC866 and newer CPUs, this constant MUST NOT be defined for
-MPC823/850/860/862 series. The clock generation algorithm for older
-chips is different and has not been implemented yet. If you need it,
-your patch is welcome.
