Research direction

Start with the coreboot Kconfig options documentation and the linked Haswell commits for ENABLE_DDR_2X_REFRESH. Then determine whether Sandy/Ivy Bridge support is technically possible and what the port would require. Done would mean a decided implementation scope or a documented conclusion that the feature cannot be supported.
