Support for the TX53-8030 is currently in the -next branch, but
unfortunately it doesn't seem to work properly, see this thread:

Just rechecked on my 1011 board (I can't find the 8030 board atm,
otherwise I would have fixed the support already), it's about
230MB/s using memcpy on the commandline. Probably you don't have
the MMU turned on which means you're running without data chaches.
