Rudolf Marek 3a8565a77b During the suspend/resume programming I came to an issue that first 4KB of
memory must be clear with 0s because otherwise the resources of K8 will be
totally messed up.

res = probe_resource(dev, 0x100 + (reg | link));

This is called with dev = NULL and this is no good for probe_resource at all.
The attached patch fixes the potential problems and of course the problem
itself. On one particular place was missing test if the device really exists.
This was copied to fam10 and perhaps the same issue is in v3 (DID NOT check).
The rest of the patch is just very paranoid and do all checkings.

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.


Payloads
--------

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

 * A Linux kernel
 * FILO (a simple bootloader with filesystem support)
 * GRUB2 (a free bootloader; support is in development)
 * OpenBIOS (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * Open Firmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * SmartFirmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * GNUFI (a free, UEFI-compatible firmware)
 * Etherboot (for network booting and booting from raw IDE or FILO)
 * ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 or OpenBSD)
 * Plan 9 (a distributed operating system)
 * memtest86 (for testing your RAM)


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

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