Vendor DRAM check for 1.5 GB is pretty simple. First, it's checked if 2 GB
of RAM is detected. If so, 3 different patterns are written to 0x70000000,
0xa0000000 and 0x80000000 (in that order). Then, pattern from 0xa0000000 is
read. If it doesn't match to pattern written to this location, 1.5 GB is
assumed.
