Looks good if you have tested it on real hardware:

Acked-by: Joseph Smith <joe at settoplinux.org>

I don't think we should worry about intel_common.h for now, for four lines
of code. I can see simularities in the northbridge.c's but alot of the
raminit.c's have the same basic goal but do it very differently. I say we
get your code submitted now and worry about code consolidation later.
