On this board U-Boot runs from the same memory which get_ram_size()
should probe for its actual size.
Currently, as far as I can see, the implementation of get_ram_size()
don't hit itself (by fortune?) while probing. But maybe the algorithm
will change in some feature.
Additionally the fixed RAM size is (implicit) needed in several
other places for example CONFIG_SYS_MEMTEST_END and lowlevel
initialization of SDRAM, relocation to TEXT_BASE and so on.
Normally autoconf is a good thing (TM) but in this case I'm not sure.
