Martin Roth 582b2aee0f FSP & CBMEM: Fix broken cbmem CAR transition.
1) Save the pointer to the FSP HOB list to low memory at address 0x614.

This is the same location as CBMEM_RESUME_BACKUP - the two aren't used
in the same platform, so overlapping should be OK.  I didn't see any
documentation that actually said that this location was free to use, and
didn't need to be restored after use in S3 resume, but it looks like
the DOS boot vector gets loaded juat above this location, so it SHOULD
be ok.  The alternative is to copy the memory out and store it in cbmem
until we're ready to restore it.

2) When a request for the pointer to a CAR variable comes in, pass back
the location inside the FSP hob structure.

3) Skip the memcopy of the CAR Data.   The CAR variables do not
get transitioned back into cbmem, but used out of the HOB structure.

4) Remove the BROKEN_CAR_MIGRATE Kconfig option from the FSP platform.

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

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS
(firmware) found in most computers.  coreboot performs a little bit of
hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a
payload.

With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic,
coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly
firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom
bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or
UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary
in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space
required.

coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS.


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:
