it is insufficient if you want to change the DDR clock after the
memory is already initialized. For that you will need a sequence like
putting memory in self-refresh mode, stopping memory controller,
update clocks, restart memory controller, putting memory out of
self-refresh. That's why the cgu_init() runs before mc_init(). Thus if
the board comes up with 111/111 MHz, you cannot switch to 393/166 MHz
because that would require to change the DDR clock.

Actually this should work. Did you put the CGU register settings
before the memory controller settings?
