c6d4705f41 x86: quark: Configure MTRR to enable cache
Quark SoC does not support MSR MTRRs. Fixed and variable range MTRRs
are accessed indirectly via the message port and not the traditional
MSR mechanism. Only UC, WT and WB cache types are supported.

We configure all the fixed range MTRRs with common values (VGA RAM
as UC, others as WB) and 3 variable range MTRRs for ROM/eSRAM/RAM as
WB, which significantly improves the boot time performance.

With this commit, it takes only 2 seconds for U-Boot to boot to shell
on Intel Galileo board. Previously it took about 6 seconds.

20c34115d6 x86: quark: Call MRC in dram_init()
Now that we have added Quark MRC codes, call MRC in dram_init() so
that DRAM can be initialized on a Quark based board.

828d9af5ec x86: Add basic Intel Quark processor support
Add minimum codes to support Intel Quark SoC. DRAM initialization
is not ready yet so a hardcoded gd->ram_size is assigned.
