    nb/intel/sandybridge/raminit: Adjust timB to prevent overflow
    
    Improved version of
    I1a115a45d5febf351d89721ece79eaf43f7ee8a0
    
    The first version wasn't well tested due to the lack of hardware
    and it was to aggressive.
    
    With timC being direct function of timB's 6 LSBs it's critical to match
    timC and timB.
    Some tests increments the value of timB by a small value,
    which might cause the 6bit value to overflow, if it's close
    to 0x3F.
    Increment the value by a small offset if it's likely
    to overflow, to make sure it won't overflow while running
    tests and bricks the system due to a non matching timC.
    
    In comparission to the first attempt, only 4 out of 128 timB values
    are considered bad.
    
    Needs test on real hardware !
    
    Fixes a "edge write discovery failed" on my test system.
    
    Test system:
     * Intel IvyBridge
     * Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H
