We've been over this:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-September/059961.html
:-P

C values don't carry units, so you can't assume that multiplying a frequency
by 6 means you want another frequency 6 times as fast.

Whether the timeout is supposed to be expressed in ticks or in some other
unit such as milliseconds is another matter.
