MPC52xx PCI write combine timer

On MPC52xx the PCI target control register (PCITCR) @ MBAR + 0xD6C is initialized with only bit 7 (Latrule disable) set. The 8-Bit write combine timer (Bits 24..31) should be also set to a reasonable value _greater zero_ (0x08 = default) since setting it to 0x00 leads to _very poor_ performance as a PCI target since external burst won't be possible at all.

Setting the WCT to 0x08 (cache-line size) leads to good overall perfomance.

Looks good to me. I'll test it here and pick it up if all looks good.

Cheers,
