Are you sure OpenBIOS does it? Doesn't it get the info from the qemu fw device?
At least when making OFW I haven't found a way to the info from the
memory controller. I think it's not implemented. Or at least wasn't
back then.
And since I wanted to be compatible with the real hw, which doesn't
have a fw device, I just kept the hardcoded value in OFW.
If it's in the MC meanwhile, I can add the check to OFW as well.
