The new documentation describes typical ways that mainboards will
set up their GPIOs, as well as the distinction between "early"
and "normal" GPIOs. It also describes the typical properties
that GPIO configuration will cover.

* Add function to generate unique _UID using CRC32
* Add function to write the _UID based on a device's ACPI path
ACPI devices that have the same _HID must use different _UID.
Linux doesn't care about _UID if it's not used.
Windows 10 verifies the ACPI code on boot and BSODs if two devices
with the same _HID share the same _UID.
Fixes BSOD seen on Windows 10.

The BMC and tools interacting with it depend on metadata placed inside
the ROM in order the flash the BIOS.
Add a new tool smcbiosinfo, integrate it into the build system, and
generate a 128byte metadata file called smcbiosinfo.bin on build.
You need to provide the BoardID for every SMC mainboard through a new
Kconfig symbol: SUPERMICRO_BOARDID
Some fields are unknown, but it's sufficient to flash it using SMC
vendor tools.
Tested on Supermicro X11SSH:
* Flashing using the WebUI works
* Flashing using SMCIPMITool works
No further validation is done on the firmware.

Having the release notes mostly ready one week before the release
allows for better review.
Some statistics, the actual release date and commit ID can only be
filled in on release day, but there's a tried & true technique for
that: placeholders.
It's also a nice touch to have the release notes of a release within
its source tarballs, so push them right before creating the release
(since changes in Documentation/releases won't break coreboot in
any way).

The MIPS architecture port has been added 5+ years ago in order to
support a Chrome OS project that ended up going nowhere. No other board
has used it since and nobody is still willing or has the expertise and
hardware to maintain it. We have decided that it has become too much of
a mainenance burden and the chance of anyone ever reviving it seems too
slim at this point. This patch eliminates all MIPS code and
MIPS-specific hacks.

Introduce a new approach to long mode support. The previous patch set
generated page tables at runtime and placed them in heap. The new
approach places the page tables in memory mapped ROM.
Introduce a new tool called pgtblgen that creates x86 long mode compatible

and placed at a predefined offset.
Add assembly code to load the page tables, based on a Kconfig symbol and
