That's a good feedback. I will review the DDR3 settings in mainline
U-boot against SolidRun's tree.

No, we don't:
/* Limit mem_speed for MX6D/MX6Q */
if (is_cpu_type(MXC_CPU_MX6Q) || is_cpu_type(MXC_CPU_MX6D)) {
if (mem_speed > 1066)
mem_speed = 1066; /* 1066 MT/s */

Would be wonderful to have these changes upstreamed.
