99ac98f7e1 Introduce stage-specific architecture for coreboot
Make all three coreboot stages (bootblock, romstage and ramstage) aware of the
architecture specific to that stage i.e. we will have CONFIG_ARCH variables for
each of the three stages. This allows us to have an SOC with any combination of
architectures and thus every stage can be made to run on a completely different
architecture independent of others. Thus, bootblock can have an x86 arch whereas
romstage and ramstage can have arm32 and arm64 arch respectively. These stage
specific CONFIG_ARCH_ variables enable us to select the proper set of toolchain
and compiler flags for every stage.

These options can be considered as either arch or modes eg: x86 running in
different modes or ARM having different arch types (v4, v7, v8). We have got rid
of the original CONFIG_ARCH option completely as every stage can have any
architecture of its own. Thus, almost all the components of coreboot are
identified as being part of one of the three stages (bootblock, romstage or
ramstage). The components which cannot be classified as such e.g. smm, rmodules
can have their own compiler toolset which is for now set to *_i386. Hence, all
special classes are treated in a similar way and the compiler toolset is defined
using create_class_compiler defined in Makefile.

In order to meet these requirements, changes have been made to CC, LD, OBJCOPY
and family to add CC_bootblock, CC_romstage, CC_ramstage and similarly others.
Additionally, CC_x86_32 and CC_armv7 handle all the special classes. All the
toolsets are defined using create_class_compiler.

Few additional macros have been introduced to identify the class to be used at
various points, e.g.: CC_$(class) derives the $(class) part from the name of
the stage being compiled.

We have also got rid of COREBOOT_COMPILER, COREBOOT_ASSEMBLER and COREBOOT_LINKER
as they do not make any sense for coreboot as a whole. All these attributes are
associated with each of the stages.

e9f3258e0b This patch fixes build.h dependencies in coreboot again.
-include was dropped, the files in question do an #include <build.h> already.

b4d3af8888 separate build.h and config.h usage (now possible because newconfig is gone)
Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan@coresystems.de>
Acked-by: Patrick Georgi <patrick.georgi@coresystems.de>

This patch is slightly reworked to include a necessary romcc change that allows
more than one -include specified on the command line, and gets rid of the
explicit build.h dependencies of all files. (The files do keep an explicit
config.h dependency though)

0867062412 This patch unifies the use of config options in v2 to all start with CONFIG_
It's basically done with the following script and some manual fixup:

VARS=`grep ^define src/config/Options.lb | cut -f2 -d\ | grep -v ^CONFIG | grep -v ^COREBOOT |grep -v ^CC`
for VAR in $VARS; do
	find . -name .svn -prune -o -type f -exec perl -pi -e "s/(^|[^0-9a-zA-Z_]+)$VAR($|[^0-9a-zA-Z_]+)/\1CONFIG_$VAR\2/g" {} \;
done

f8ee1806ac Rename almost all occurences of LinuxBIOS to coreboot.
Due to the automatic nature of this update, I am self-acking. It worked in
abuild.

7003ba4a88 - First stab at running linuxbios without the old static device tree.
Things are close but not quite there yet.
