Uwe Hermann 41dc1c0656 Cleanup up HD audio codec / hda_verb.h files.
Most of the current hda_verb.h files are identical (same MD5 sum) and are
intended for a specific MCP55 board with the Realtek ALC880 audio codec,
which has the vendor/device ID of 0x10ec0880. They were splitted out from the
MCP55 southbridge code and put into board dirs a long time ago (which is
correct, as those settings are indeed board-specific), but they were never
adapted to those boards.

Here's the table of which codec is soldered onto which board, based on
checking the vendor website board spec pages, and the board manuals:

 - GIGABYTE GA-M57SLI-S4: Realtek ALC883
 - MSI MS-7260: Realtek ALC883
 - MSI MS-9652: Realtek ALC888
 - MSI MS-9282: Server board, doesn't have audio at all
 - Tyan S2912: Server board, doesn't have audio at all
 - All Supermicro boards: Server boards, don't have audio at all
 - NVIDIA l1_2pvv: No public info to be found, but I assume this was the
   original MCP55 eval board for the port and it's probably has the Realtek
   ALC880 codec used in the original hda_verb.h.

These are the codec vendor device/IDs involved:
Realtek ALC880: 0x10ec0880
Realtek ALC883: 0x10ec0883
Realtek ALC888: 0x10ec0888

The following files are marked as incorrect / TODO, as the ID of the codec
doesn't match and thus will never get actually used (you'll see
"HDA: no verb!" or similar in the coreboot logs). Even if the ID matched,
the rest of the table would be incorrect anyway because the values are
highly board-specific.

./src/mainboard/gigabyte/m57sli/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/msi/ms9652_fam10/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/msi/ms9282/hda_verb.h

The following files can be safely dropped as these are server boards and
don't have HD audio (or other audio) at all:

./src/mainboard/supermicro/h8dmr/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/supermicro/h8qme_fam10/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/supermicro/h8dme/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/supermicro/h8dmr_fam10/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/tyan/s2912/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/tyan/s2912_fam10/hda_verb.h

The following two are correct and can stay:

./src/mainboard/nvidia/l1_2pvv/hda_verb.h
./src/mainboard/getac/p470/hda_verb.h

Abuild-tested.

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:

You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list:
