nb/intel/nehalem: Fix smashed stack in romstage
Stack smashing was detected during raminit when not loading from MRC. Adding CAR_GLOBAL to a struct inside raminit was suggested in https://mail.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2018-May/086677.html in order to fix the problem. Adding CAR_GLOBAL to the ram timings variable solves the issue (adding it to the ram_training or raminfo struct had no effect). This is just a workaround and might need a proper fix in the future. Tested on Lenovo X201i with 2+2 and 4+4 GB RAM.
