Actually that won't work because all SRAMs are on IF0, and here we use
DMA memcpy to copy things from/to the SRAM to/from the DRAM. I have no
simple solution to force usage of IF1 when accessing the DRAM but I'm
also not sure this will solve Peter's problem since forcing LCDC to use
DDR port 3 did not make things better.
