OCRAM has a requirement of initializing before first time "read". 
If user reads OCRAM before **initializing**; ECC error will come.  (u-boot is 
not handling this error for now).

I can only guess the reason of not seeing this error as OCRAM never read before 
any write.
Even in case of Stack, data is first written and then read.
