    nb/intel/sandybridge/raminit: add additional fallbacks
    
    Add the following fallbacks:
    * Try decreasing clock frequency.
       In case of DDR1600 the next possible value of DDR1333 is being used.
    * Try decreasing clock frequency.
       In case of DDR1333 the next possible value of DDR1066 is being used.
    * Disable failing channel.
       The system may be able to boot with a single channel enabled.
    
    The fallbacks are untested.
