We touch the CCGR5 already in the imximage.cfg. So we could drop this 
code completely and just add the MXC_CCM_CCGR5_CG2_MASK to the imximage.cfg.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of this?

Advantages:

Less code, touch the register only once in imximage.cfg.

Disadvantages:

Less readability, doing it in setup_sata() instead of imximage.cfg is 
easier to understand and disable (by removing CONFIG_CMD_SATA).

Opinions?

It sounds like this results in the basic question: Which registers 
should be touched in imximage.cfg, and which by explicit code in 
drivers/board files?

Best regards
