thank you for the explanation. can you please add it to the patch description?

I missed that, sorry for the noise

I tried it on Meson8b and it seems that there's no difference. I've
done a bit of software archaeology:
$ grep -R mpll_cntl uboot-2015-01-15-23a3562521/ | grep "=" | head -n3
uboot-2015-01-15-23a3562521/board/amlogic/m8_k100_1G/firmware/timming.c:
.mpll_cntl = 0x600009A9, //2.5G, fixed
uboot-2015-01-15-23a3562521/board/amlogic/m8_k100_2G/firmware/timming.c:
.mpll_cntl = 0x600009A9, //2.5G, fixed
uboot-2015-01-15-23a3562521/board/amlogic/m8b_ft_v1/firmware/timming.c:
.mpll_cntl = 0x600009A9, //2.5G, fixed

Ethernet is still working on my Odroid-C1, so you can add my:
