This board has 64M of SDRAM, why don't you simply increase it to say
32MB? It's not that you need the memory for something else in barebox.

BTW could you test the i.MX clock framework patches I posted to ARM
Linux Kernel? I have no i.MX21 hardware, so I ported the i.MX21
completely blind. It would be good to test this before we break
mainline

Thanks
