The real reason for memory instability was the fact that the EMI block
was gated and not reset throughout the boards' operation. This patch
resets the EMI block properly while also reverts the memory voltage bump.
The memory stability issues were caused by the EMI not being reset properly
and thus there is no longer need to run the memory at higher voltage than
it ought to run at.

This partly reverts 8303ed128a55519f19c5f11087032d4bc4e0537a .

What the changes from v1? Last time I tested it, it broke mx23evk as
it made it fail in mtest.

The MX23EVK reboots unconditionally when I attempt mtest with or without this 
patch.

And there's no previous version, this patch is V1. The stuff sent before shall 
be ignored.

Here it works fine.

So does it change something from initial post?

I just tested this on MX23EVK, I detect no problem.

I do not know, that's why this is V1.

Applied (whole series) to u-boot-imx, thanks.
