northbridge/intel/i440bx: Registered SDRAM modules support and fixes
Adds support for initializing registered SDRAM modules on Intel 440BX northbridge.
Drops unneeded romcc-inspired programming tricks.
Only set nbxecc flags (see 440BX datasheet, page 3-16) when a non-ECC module has been detected in a row via SPD; also drops an unneeded intermediate variable used in setting them.
Boot tested on ASUS P2B-LS with regular and registered ECC SDRAM under Linux and memtest86+.
