Damm it. No, you're not blind. I did an horrible mistake adding an old version
of this file. It's wrong, that is supposed to be there is DDR3 table available
in the ATF [1] not this.

/* 5-5-5 */
DDR3_800D = 0,
/* 6-6-6 */
DDR3_800E = 1,
/* 6-6-6 */
DDR3_1066E = 2,
/* 7-7-7 */
DDR3_1066F = 3,
...

The value is passed directly to the ATF so the above values are the correct.

One question that I have on my mind is if this file should be called as is or if
will be better name as atf-ddr.h or something like that.
ddr.h -> atf-ddr.h

Sorry about that. Guess it's needed a v2 but let's wait a little bit for if more
discussion arises.

Best regards,
Enric
