I've tried something very close to what is done in tqm8xx but I don't 
manage to get something reliable : either it hangs or I get data abort.

After checking the datasheet, I don't understand how we can change the 
geometry of this SDRAM controler while running from SDRAM : each time we 
increase the colum number, the address are modified thus we can't 
execute any more u-boot's code as it's no more where we are expecting it.
