It's all quite messy still :-) ... I just managed to fix my last boot issues 
with adding the baud clock aliases. 

As I'm currently working on a linux-next variant with a lot of pending patches 
merged in, there is no public git tree of it. But I've attached an archive of 
the changes I did. As always I'm doing s3c2416 and s3c2443 as they are quite 
similar, but as always there is a big difference to SoCs earlier than s3c2443.
