Yep we still need to figure out a plan for multiple DDR configs or see
if we can move the DDR init to later in the boot as that is the only
thing left that still needs the board detection this early on.
There is a little race condition here as TIFS can respond to some
messages before it's finished its init. IDK if we can send it anything
to act like a fence and stall us until the firewalls are down though.

This should work, using the HSM's RAM was just a short sided work around
before the HS chips started being produced.
