the DRAM Controller in i.MX8MP will support a feature called "Inline ECC".
This is supported for all 3 supported DRAM technologies (LPDDR4, DDR4 and
DDR3L). When this feature is enabled by software, the DRAM Controller
reserves 12.5% of DRAM capacity for ECC information, and presents only
the non-ECC portion (lower 87.5% of the installed capacity of DRAM) to
the rest of the SoC.
The DRAM memory can be divided into 8 regions so that if a use case only
requires ECC protection on a subset of memory, then only that subset of
memory need support inline ECC. If this occurs, then there is no
performance penalty accessing the non-ECC-protected memory (no need to
access ECC for this portion of the memory map). This is all configured
with the DRAM Controller.

Refine the ddr init driver to make it more reusable for different
DDR type(LPDDR4, DDR4 & DDR3L). So we can reduce some redundant
code.
