such as .note.this.that. These new note names were making builds
unbuildable on (e.g.) fc9.

This includes using consistent (C) lines, adding email addresses,
and so on. The file southbridge/nvidia/mcp55/dts was never edited
by Yinghai Lu (thus removing his (C) line) and would be too trivial
anyway...
The changes (though trivial) were also informally acked by Ron on IRC.

Due to some problems with PCI transactions, Geode LX needs the ROM cache properties to be write-serialize + cache disabled by runtime. More details below.
Add mainboard_pre_payload() call to each mainboard as the final coreboot function before the payload is called by stage1.
Note that this patch also grows the bootblock from 16K to 20K to make room for mainboard_pre_payload().
"The problem is a transaction depth issue and bottlenecks inside the GX
and LX that go across PCI. The conditions are very complicated but it
comes down to we need write serialization for writes to PCI. If you
look in the data book you can't have write serialization and the cache
enabled on a given area. During coreboot we don't have to worry about
a write or a PCI bus master so I think we can enable caching the ROM.
After coreboot we can't be sure what will happen in the system so we
need to set it up to be safe. For example flashrom just clears the
write protect bit. If the cache were enabled (no write serialization)
and flashrom was writing the ROM we would be in a precarious position.
A PCI bus master doing a read or a write that has a hit on a tag
would cause enough bottleneck conditions that it might hit the bug. We
could change flashrom but that doesn't help other tools. We need to
leave the system in a safe state. Also, caching the ROM after it is no
longer used doesn't make much sense. So, we need a call just before
the payload runs to clean up the system."

- I left LB_TAG_ intact because they are used by the payloads
- file renames are still missing. see next commit
- some lb_ renames might be missing. feel free to provide patches.

This is an infrastructure patch, it will not make vga output work yet.
Another patch will follow.
This code is imported from LinuxBIOSv2 which had this code imported from
LinuxBIOSv1.

file in LAR called raminit.
The intent is that stage0_i586.S would be common for just about all
stage0. It has no includes. We had to go with an ldscript.ld to deal
with the many bugs in binutils. Maybe someday this will change.
Tested by Ron and Uwe in bochs with debugging.
