Heiko & Kever,

just a quick update (to avoid any duplication of effort)…

We have implemented DRAM initialisation in UBoot/SPL for the RK3368-uQ7
already, but it will be a few more days before we can provide patches (the SPL
stage is hopelessly large once we MMC support in SPL is enabled … so this
first needs back-to-bootrom working).

The first drop from our side will be 32bits, dual-rank — auto-detection of ranks
and width will come in later, once I receive modified hardware (i.e. (a) with CS1
held high; (b) with half the memory removed for 16bit mode) from my colleagues.

Regards,
Philipp.
