This set fixes several issues found on the Rock Pi 4.

For full context, please see this initial bug report:

 "There appear to be a number of issues with the Rockchip rk3399 DDR RAM                      
  initialisation sequence in Mainline.  Specifically, I'm seeing                              
  consistent failures on the Rock Pi 4+ during early boot.  A typical                         
  failure looks something like this:

    Returning to boot ROM...                                                                  
                                                                                              
  Even when the system boots to a terminal, which happens very                                
  infrequently, the LPDDR4 RAM chip at Channel 1 can have conflicting                         
  discovery information printed during TPL.  The following 3 lines were                       
  printed during successive reboots using the same SD card with no

  The story changes when I build the idbloader.img image with Rockchip's                      
  TBL (?) binary blob [0].  With that built in, presumably in place of                        
  the upstream TBL, both RAM chips are successfully enumerated and boot                       
  succeeds with 100% success rate:                                                            
                                                                                              
    tools/mkimage -n rk3399 -T rksd -d \                                                      
      rk3399_ddr_933MHz_v1.25.bin:spl/u-boot-spl.bin idbloader.img                            
                                                                                              
  Another thing that is very different between the 2 is the initial                           
  frequency the LPDDR4 chips are clocked at.  Using the upstream TBL                          
  version, the default is 50Mhz, which seems very low.  If using the                          
  Rockchip supplied binary blob file, this is increased to a respectable                      
  416MHz:                                                                                     
                                                                                              
    # Mainline                                                                                
    Channel 0: LPDDR4, 50MHz                                                                  
                                                                                              
    # Rockchip TBL blob                                                                       
    Channel 0: LPDDR4,416MHz                                                                  
                                                                                              
  One thing I did try was to load in the 400Mhz configuration settings                        
  from drivers/ram/rockchip/sdram-rk3399-lpddr4-400.inc as the default                        
  initial values, instead of the 50MHz default taken from                                     
  arch/arm/dts/rk3399-sdram-lpddr4-100.dtsi, but this failed in a number                      
  of ways:

  So my question is; does Rockchip, or anyone else for that matter, have                      
  any plans on updating Mainline U-Boot with the upgraded/working LPDDR4                      
  initialisation sequence?"
