Add an option to make compression of ramstage configurable. Right now
it is always compressed. On my Thinkpad, the complete boot to grub takes
4s, with around 1s required for decompressing ramstage. This is probably
caused by the fact the decompression does a lot of single byte/word/qword
accesses, which are really slow on SPI buses. So give the user the option
to store ramstage uncompressed, if he has enough memory.

for that instead. This also allows using non-uart8250 consoles for smi
debugging.

It's about time we follow this advice.
Also move some manually set __PRE_RAM__ defines (ap_romstage.c) to the Makefile and
drop unused CPP define

Right now there are no dependency rules for compiling dsdt.asl.
If ACPI code includes asl files, the dsdt isn't recompiled if any
of those file is changed. Add the flags to the preprocessor call
to have it generate the neccessary dependency rule.

Allow using revision information (from svn or git) even if the version
number is changed on the command line (eg. make KERNELVERSION='11.03$(REV)')
or dropping it entirely if having that information in the coreboot binary is
not desired.

This is to make sure that the file exists when it is needed. While this isn't the case for every C source file, it doesn't hurt either to create the file a bit sooner than strictly necessary.
