Duncan Laurie b6e97b19ae Add support for storing POST codes in CMOS
This will use 3 bytes of CMOS to keep track of the POST
code for the current boot while also leaving a record of
the previous boot.

The active bank is switched early in the bootblock.

Test:
1) clear cmos
2) reboot
3) use "mosys nvram dump" to verify that the first byte
contains 0x80 and the second byte contains 0xF8
4) powerd_suspend and then resume
5) use "mosys nvram dump" to verify that the first byte
contains 0x81 and the second byte contains 0xFD

Alexandru Gagniuc f88204e02b Add a capability for mainboard-specific posting.
Some mainboards have really nice capabilities for posting, beyond
simple POST cards. Further, some can not use a POST card. This
change defines a weak symbol (mainboard_post) that can be overridden
by a real mainboard_post function.

If, for example, you'd like to do something fancy before the payload starts,
you can add this to mainboard.c:

void mainboard_post(u8 value)
{
	switch(value){
		case POST_TIME_TO_PARTY: some_fancy_lights();
		break;
	}
}

Maybe the post function should be an entry in the device. We're beginning to over-use
weak symbols.

BUG=None

TEST=Build and boot a google chromebook. Observe that it still works. Use it to drive
some pretty lights.

Christoph Grenz 5cfd583c5c console: support integrated 7-segment displays for POST codes
Add a configuration option POST_PORT which defaults to 0x80 and
can be redefined by boards which have integrated POST displays
on another I/O port. Change post.c to output POST codes to this
port instead of 0x80 hardcoded.

Stefan Reinauer 582d369fbd rename CONFIG_SERIAL_POST to CONFIG_CONSOLE_POST
because that is what it does.

Stefan Reinauer abc0c85516 Printing coreboot debug messages on VGA console is pretty much useless, since
initializing VGA happens pretty much as the last thing before starting the
payload. Hence, drop VGA console support, as we did in coreboot v3.

- Drop VGA and BTEXT console support. 
  Console is meant to be debugging only, and by the time graphics comes up
  99% of the risky stuff has already happened. Note: This patch does not remove
  hardware init but only the actual output functionality. 

  The ragexl driver needs some extra love, but that's for another day
- factor out die() and post()
- drop some leftover RAMBASE < 0x100000 checks.
