The 432 MHz patch is cubie specific, the FAST_MBUS one is not though,
we can fix Oliver's FAST_MBUS issue in another way I'm fine with
using FAST_MBUS *everywhere*, my main problem with FAST_MBUS is
that I want the define to go away and simply use the same settings
everywhere, to make upstreaming all the u-boot-sunxi code easier.
