From: Shawn Guo <shawn.guo at linaro.org>
Function ddr_load_train_firmware() is called 4 times in a loop by
ddr_cfg_phy(). The first 3 calls are all '1D' type and just loading the
same FWs. Let's add a type check and save 2 of them. This helps to
reduce DDRPHY training time from 269 ms down to 212 ms, and thus speed
up boot time ~ 50 ms.
