This originally had a conditional depending on the SoC family. (Yeah,
they need to reset the ram differently). It seems it wasn't removed
properly.

Before going into more detail, remember this is ram initialization
code. That's always going to be a pain :(.
There's nothing magic here. It's just a fact of life. Every step is
going to need a different delay. No need to bloat the headers by
#defining each. It also makes raminit code more unreadable.
We got these numbers from allwinner code dumps. We used to have these
as sdelay() numbers, which usually meant units of 2 clock cycles. So
we had to convert them to udelay() to at least make the delays
independent of CPU clock. The old sdelay() numbers made no sense either.
