[PATCH 2/2] x86/quark: Add Quark embedded SRAM self-test

From: Bryan O'Donoghue
Date: Sun May 03 2015 - 22:18:35 EST


Quark X1000 contains an embedded SRAM (eSRAM) a fast access SRAM. This code
is a self-test routine to measure the performance of that SRAM for
different read-values. The tests are designed the performance gains
provided by eSRAM using different read-sizes and comparing the performance
of eSRAM overlayed DRAM to raw DRAM.
