I don't think so, for the same backward compatibility reason as for the
other boards. But the DTS file might be changed to use clock-frequency.
BTW, when I wrote the code I already had the MPC512x in mind. IIRC, the
FDR table and the function scanning it for the MPC52xx should work for
the MPC512x as well. It's mainly a matter of using the proper function
to get the source clock frequency and fiddling with multiple-arch support.
