[Letux-kernel] x1600: how RAM size is determined

[H. Nikolaus Schaller]

Hi,

64 MB version works. Almost...


U-Boot SPL 2013.07-00326-g599e29eddb (Mar 02 2024 - 20:31:02)
DDR: M54D5121632A type is : LPDDR2

Board: fpga-X1600 (Ingenic XBurst X1600  SoC)

Doesn't look to be 100% consistent.

Anyways, here are the new SPL/U-Boot images:

Still missing is the makesd extension. But we need that only if we have more x1600e boards...
