Really nice (and CLEAN...) patch :)

i do have two questions -

1. in sdram_set_spd_registers(),  what is the correct order of the 3
following commands:

spd_set_dram_size();
set_dram_buffer_strength();
set_dram_timing();

since ive noticed its not the same as in other related intel northbridges
(not that it counts for something...).
i would assume timing & strength should be called before setting the size.
no?

2. also, in do_ram_command(), i have no idea how you got those addr_offset
from... can you please elaborate or link me to the proper page on the
datasheet (or similar)?

thanks again,

Elia.
