Implement SDRAM init using the Memory Reference Code (mrc.bin) provided in
the board directory and the SDRAM SPD information in the device tree. This
also needs the Intel Management Engine (me.bin) to work. Binary blobs
everywhere: so far we have MRC, ME and microcode.
SDRAM init works by setting up various parameters and calling the MRC. This
in turn does some sort of magic to work out how much memory there is and
the timing parameters to use. It also sets up the DRAM controllers. When
the MRC returns, we use the information it provides to map out the
available memory in U-Boot.
U-Boot normally moves itself to the top of RAM. On x86 the RAM is not
generally contiguous, and anyway some RAM may be above 4GB which doesn't
work in 32-bit mode. So we relocate to the top of the largest block of
RAM we can find below 4GB. Memory above 4GB is accessible with special
functions (see physmem).
It would be possible to build U-Boot in 64-bit mode but this wouldn't
necessarily provide any more memory, since the largest block is often below
4GB. Anyway U-Boot doesn't need huge amounts of memory - even a very large
ramdisk seldom exceeds 100-200MB. U-Boot has support for booting 64-bit
kernels directly so this does not pose a limitation in that area. Also there
are probably parts of U-Boot that will not work correctly in 64-bit mode.
The MRC is one.
There is some work remaining in this area. Since memory init is very slow
(over 500ms) it is possible to save the parameters in SPI flash to speed it
up next time. Suspend/resume support is not fully implemented, or at least
it is not efficient.
With this patch, link boots to a prompt.

When not relying on Coreboot for GPIO init the GPIOs must be set up
correctly. This is currently done statically through a rather ugly method.
As the GPIOs are figured out they can be moved to the device tree and set
up as needed rather than all at the start.
In this implementation, board files should call ich_gpio_set_gpio_map()
before the GPIO driver is used in order to provide the GPIO information.
We use the early PCI interface so that this driver can now be used before
relocation.

Add simple PCI access routines for x86 which permit use before relocation.
The normal PCI stack is still used, but for pre-relocation use there can
only ever be a single hose. After relocation, fall back to the normal
access, although even then on x86 machines there is normally only a single
PCI bus.

We want access PCI earlier in the init sequence, so refactor the code so
that it does not require use of a BSS variable to work. This will allow us
to use early malloc() to store information about a PCI hose.
Common PCI code moves to arch/x86/cpu/pci.c and a new
board_pci_setup_hose() function is provided by boards to set up the (single)
hose used by that board.

On x86 it is common to use 'post codes' which are 8-bit hex values emitted
from the code and visible to the user. Traditionally two 7-segment displays
were made available on the motherboard to show the last post code that was
emitted. This allows diagnosis of a boot problem since it is possible to
see where the code got to before it died.
On modern hardware these codes are not normally visible. On Chromebooks
they are displayed by the Embedded Controller (EC), so it is useful to emit
them. We must enable this feature for the EC to see the codes, so add an
option for this.

The motivation of this commit is to change CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC
to a boolean macro so we can move it to Kconfig.
In the current implementation, there are two forms of syntax
for this macro:
- CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=y
- CONFIG_USE_PRIVATE_LIBGCC=path/to/private/libgcc
The latter is only used by x86 architecture.
With a little bit refactoring, it can be converted to the former.
