Values for 800x480 fb_videomode depend on the TFT-panel that
you are using. Without the spec of this panel it is hard to guess.
It is also hard to guess the value for .pixclock as we do not know
if internal or external clock is used as the source for display
reference clock. What is the value of GDC DCM0 register (at
offset 0x1fd0000 or 0x1fd0100 from the GDC base)?

Try something like this:
.xres = 800
.yres = 480
.pixclock = 40000
.left_margin = 86
.right_margin = 42
.upper_margin = 33
.lower_margin = 10
.hsync_len = 128
.vsync_len = 2

then you probably should retrieve proper values for fb_videomode
from display controller registers set up by U-Boot. If you do not
have the spec for your panel, it is the way to go. Consult the
GDC manual (Display control registers section) and
Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt in the linux source tree.
