I started to debug this, but I got distracted when I noticed the LCD
did't work at all on modern kernels.  I have that fixed now, so I can
go back to investigating this.

** hang **

I noticed there doesn't seem to be the calculation for setting fck,
pck or any of the timings.  Are there any more debug options I can
enable?

I would prefer to fix the calculation so the display can work without
the defconfig or device tree modification, and then we dump this all
together.
