nb/intel/haswell: Ensure MCH has acked raminit
Haswell MRC.bin can return zero even when raminit did not complete successfully. When this happens, the memory controller will not have acknowledged raminit: the mc_init_done_ack bit in the MC_INIT_STATE_G register will be zero, and memory accesses will lock up the system. To handle this situation more gracefully, check the mc_init_done_ack bit after running MRC. If the bit is not set, log a fatal error and halt. Tested on Asrock B85M Pro4: - With badly-seated DIMMs, MRC raminit fails and coreboot dies. - After reseating the DIMMs, the board still boots successfully.
