Remember what I mentioned in my response: there are quite a few other folks also using the SoC support and evm. They would rather not want to see the increase in boot time if we merge such a change. I don't see a reasonable alternative without using DMA to prime effectively. Also, is blindly enabling ECC across the DDR effective or creating other problems? Access latencies are increased (since incoming and outgoing bursts need to be checked against checksum) or should we scheme something with a range?
