Add a bootwrapper for the AMCC 440EP Bamboo Eval board.  This also adds a
common fixup_clock function for all 440EP(x) chips.
Ok, you have a separate bamboo.c and treeboot-bamboo.c, like with
ebony.  However here, therer's only one outermost wrapper -
treeboot-bamboo.c which means there's not really any point to this
separation.
Milton already mentioned this the first time I submitted the patch.

Do you know if there are Bamboo boards with old u-boot versions, or
some other bootloader which would make the separation worthwhile
later?
Yes, there are.  And yes, I plan on submitting the cuboot-bamboo.c
wrapper just as soon as I get a chance to get my board switched back
to u-boot.  It's actually pretty trivial to keep both PIBS and
u-boot on a bamboo board, since you can program u-boot into the
flash from PIBS and flip some switches to boot from it.
Ok.
