Matt DeVillier 9d821fa1d1 payloads/seabios: Add Hardware IRQ Kconfig
Certain boards require SeaBIOS' HARDWARE_IRQ option to be
deselected in order for the platform to boot. Add a Kconfig
to allow selection of HARDWARE_IRQ enablement, and write to
SeaBIOS' .config file in cases where it needs to be disabled.
Deselect the option for google/rambi variants so they boot
with boards defaults.

Test: build/boot google/clapper, verify board boots vs hanging
at boot menu prompt.

Rename `FRAMEBUFFER_KEEP_VESA_MODE` to `LINEAR_FRAMEBUFFER` and put
it together with new `VGA_TEXT_FRAMEBUFFER` into a choice. There are
two versions of `LINEAR_FRAMEBUFFER` that differ only in the prompt
and help text (one for `HAVE_VBE_LINEAR_FRAMEBUFFER` and one for
`HAVE_LINEAR_FRAMEBUFFER`). Due to `kconfig_lint` we have to model
that with additional symbols.

Alexandru Gagniuc fdbc1af5e2 Kconfig: Remove EXPERT mode
After much consideration, and many years of an EXPERT mode sitting
almost completely unused, we've seen that it doesn't work for us.
There is no standard on what constitutes EXPERT, and most of
coreboot's options Kconfig are expert-level.

We even joked that not selecting "EXPERT" should prevent coreboot
from compiling:

@echo $(shell whoami) is not permitted to compile coreboot

Stefan Reinauer 1a8b7bfe50 payloads: Reorganize Kconfig for external payloads
The integration of external payloads in coreboot
is a bit messy. You have to change the to level Kconfig
file for every payload (something that we recently fixed
for mainboards and chipsets). This means that updating
e.g. the SeaBIOS version requires a change outside of the
SeaBIOS directory.

With this patch you can create a new directory under
payloads/external and place a Kconfig and Kconfig.name
file in there, and the payload will automatically show
up when you do "make menuconfig".
