nb/intel/sandybridge/raminit: Fix dual DIMM command rate
On boards that are able to take two DIMMs per channel the command rate should be 2T. It is possible to use 1T with load reduced "1T" DIMMs, but it's not clear how to detect those DIMMs. Raminit might fail for those who do not have such DIMMS installed. Hardcode command rate of 2T to make sure raminit works on dual DIMM per channel boards (currently only desktop boards). The command rate of 1T is still tested if only 1 DIMM per channel is present. Will decrease performance on quad slot mainboards, if two DIMMs are installed in one channel and previously 1T have been selected. Tested on ASRock B75 Pro3-M.
