[coreboot] DRAM self refresh check in src/northbridge/i945/raminit.c

[Sven Schnelle]

Hi List,

one of the last remaining problems with the ThinkPad X60 port is that
coreboot does a full reset on ACPI S3 wakeup. There's an explicit check
that the DRAM self refresh bits in PMSTS (MCHBAR offset 0xf14) are set.

For (yet) unknown reasons, those bits are not set on my Thinkpad after
Wakeup, even though suspending works for several days, without the DRAM
being refreshed by the Chipset, so i guess Self Refresh is working. I've
commented the check out, with the following diff:

Does anyone have an idea why that check fails?
