So can you wait until your patch in U-Boot is in?

Yes, the reason these register are not documented is that the ddr
engineers didn't really want anyone outside of their team messing around
with the calibration. These registers, from the limited documentation I
have, are related to the PHY settings. I've been told the calibration
sequence is something of a "black" magic.
