I think you want 800x480M at 60 here instead of 800x480.

The "if=RGBx" parameter controls the output pixel format to match the
display. It doesn't change the frame-buffer memory layout.

For that, you want to use the 'bpp=N' flag.

setenv bootargs $bootargs video=mxcfb0:dev=lcd,CLAA-WVGA,bpp=24,if=RGB666

You can verify this after boot by looking in /sys:
	# cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/bits_per_pixel
