[PATCH V2] MPC52XX: Don't touch pipelining for MPC5200B

MPC5200 needs to have pipelining disabled for ATA to work. MPC5200B does not.
So, for the latter, don't touch the original setting from the bootloader.

Hello Arnd,

Like this?

This needs some testing IMHO. Most configs in U-Boot tend to enable pipelining,
which then used to be disabled by the kernel. So, on the one hand, this change
would enable what is originally wanted; on the other hand, systems may run
under a new configuration and need to be checked for regressions. Especially as
there can be puzzling effects, like for one setup here, FEC only works reliably
with pipelining enabled.
