I'm not the right person to answer this since I don't know this
code/hardware that well, but on modern Intel hardware native code uses
the MRC cache to store dram training results and restore those on
next boots (and resume from suspend) if no change in dimm configuration
was detected.

Maybe something like this could also be applied here (or maybe it's already
the case since it includes code to access spi flash)?
