Uwe Hermann 3a4ed157dc W83627DHG/W83627EHG fixups for virtual LDNs.
W83627DHG:

 - Add proper "virtual LDN" handling for the LDNs that need it (i.e., those
   that don't have their "enable" bit in bit 0 of the 0x30 register).

 - Fix various I/O masks in the pnp_dev_info[] array as per
   datasheet. Add missing PNP_IRQ0 to the W83627DHG_ACPI LDN.

W83627EHG:

 - Similar to W83627DHG, improve the "virtual LDN" setup a bit (it was
   mostly implemented already, though).

 - Add missing PNP_IRQ0 to the W83627EHG_ACPI LDN.

Also: Fix up devicetree.cb of all boards using W83627DHG/W83627EHG to adapt
for the virtual LDNs.

include/device/pnp.h: Add comment that 'function' (which refers to the
LDN and should probably be renamed later) has to be at least 16 bits
wide. In theory LDNs could use u8, but due to the virtual LDN info being
encoded in the "high byte" of 'function' it must be at least u16.

asrock/939a785gmh/romstage.c: Drop unused GPIO6_DEV.

ibase/mb899/romstage.c: Use DUMMY_DEV instead of a specific LDN (serial
port 1 in this case) to avoid confusion. The global registers
manipulated there are accessible from any LDN.

coreboot README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary
BIOS you can find in most of today's computers.

It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes
one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel or a bootloader.


Payloads
--------

After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any
desired "payload" can be started by coreboot.

See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads.


Supported Hardware
------------------

coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

For details please consult:

 * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards
 * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices


Build Requirements
------------------

 * gcc / g++
 * make

Optional:

 * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation)
 * iasl (for targets with ACPI support)
 * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets)
 * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig')
 * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers)


Building coreboot
-----------------

Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.


Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware
------------------------------------------------

If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide
to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run
coreboot virtually in QEMU.

Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details.


Website and Mailing List
------------------------

Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development
guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website:
