This is the GeodeLX RAM speed calculation patch for v3.

Changed RAM speed calculation to fix RAM modules getting rejected only
due to integer rounding errors. Previously, the formula was:
        speed = 2 * (10000/spd_value)
For spd_value=60 this means speed = 2 * 166 = 332, which is less than
333 and coreboot died saying RAM was incompatible. The new formula is:
        speed = 20000 / spd_value
For spd_value=60, speed=333, which is fine.
