At present the normal update (which happens much later) does not work. This
seems to have something to do with the 'no eviction' mode in the CAR, or at
least moving the microcode update after that causes it not to work.
For now, do an update early on so that it definitely works. Also refuse to
continue unless the microcode update check (later in boot) is successful.

Commit 65dd74a674 (x86: ivybridge: Implement SDRAM init) introduced
x86-specific asmlinkage into arch/x86/include/asm/config.h.
Commit ed0a2fbf14 (x86: Add a definition of asmlinkage) added the
same macro define again, this time, into include/common.h.
(Please do not add arch-specific stuff to include/common.h any more;
it is already too cluttered.)
The generic asmlinkage is defined in <linux/linkage.h>. If you want
to override it with an arch-specific one, the best way is to add it
to <asm/linkage.h> like Linux Kernel.

Movie setup_pch_gpios() in the ich6-gpio driver to the board support
codes, so that the driver does not need to know any platform specific
stuff (ie: include the platform specifc chipset header file).

Intel's Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) is a generic name for a wide range
of video devices. Add code to set up the hardware on ivybridge. Part of the
init happens in native code, part of it happens in a 16-bit option ROM for
those nostalgic for the 1970s.

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.

The PCH (Platform Controller Hub) includes an LPC (Low Pin Count) device
which provides a serial port. This is accessible on Chromebooks, so enable
it early in the boot process.

This board is a 'bare' version of the existing 'link 'board. It does not
require coreboot to run, but is intended to start directly from the reset
vector.
This initial commit has place holders for a wide range of features. These
will be added in follow-on patches and series. So far it cannot be booted
as there is no ROM image produced, but it does build without errors.
