From: Niravkumar L Rabara <niravkumarlaxmidas.rabara@altera.com>
The OCRAM ECC is always enabled either by the BootROM or by the Secure
Device Manager (SDM) during a power-on reset on SoCFPGA.
However, during a warm reset, the OCRAM content is retained to preserve
data, while the control and status registers are reset to their default
values. As a result, ECC must be explicitly re-enabled after a warm reset.
