have you tried this patch without actually updating the RAM Timings (
so patch 2/4)?
I have just played around also setting ADDRMAP7 right before 
ddr_cfg_umctl2() without fixing the timings and the register was 0
again after startup and so the RAM size wrong.
So it seems to me that the value is overwritten/resetted at some other
point again ... or maybe I just did something wrong.

Regards,
Teresa
