As far as I know, since i.MX6SX, we only use MMDC_CH1, but MMDC_CH0 is still
there and we need to bypass its handshake when entering low power mode.

The bit 19 in DOC is incorrect, I remembered I ever tried it and discuss with design
time, they request DOC team to update DOC,
but I think doc team forgot to do it. You can try removing this bit 19 setting
and see if standby/mem suspend can still work? And try to modify this bit 19 value
to see if it can be modified.
