The value doesn't matter. Once activated, U-boot prompts "FSL DDR>" before enabling DDR controller. The available commands can be seen by typing "help". +Another way to enter debug mode without using environment variable is to send +a key press during boot, like one would do to abort auto boot. To save booting +time, no additioal delay is added so the window to send the key press is very +short. For example, user can send the key press using reset command followed by +hitting enter key twice.
