[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/3] mx6: ddr: Adjust MDREF register settings for MX6UL

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam at nxp.com>

When running a NXP 4.1 kernel with U-Boot mainline we observe a
hang when going into the lowest operational point of cpufreq.

After comparing the SPL DDR initialization against the DCD table
from NXP U-Boot, the key difference that causes the hang is the
MDREF register setting.

In all the DDR3 MX6UL boards we have the following configuration
for MDREF:

DATA 4 0x021B0020 0x00000800

,which means:

REF_SEL = 0 -->Periodic refresh cycle: 64kHz 
REFR = 1 ---> Refresh Rate - 2 refreshes

So adjust the MDREF initialization for MX6UL to fix the kernel
hang issue.
