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.

return from disable_car.
- Move the cache as ram memory to 0x80000 instead of 0xc8000, as the C
range is really tricky to get right :-)
- Modify the geode disable_car to ensure the cache is flushed to ram on
the wbinvd.
With these changes, I get a payload loaded.

- Simplify lots of code, especially msr-related code.
- Move struct msrinit declaration into msr.h as we use it quite often
and there's no use to duplicate it again and again in each file.
- Remove unrequired variable usage (e.g. numEnabled, msrnum, val, port).
- Remove useless comments.

the Linux kernel (as far as possible). The code is a lot simpler
and shorter now.
Also, add cpu_relax() (which is also part of the Linux file) which
could be useful for busy-loops (but is currently not used).
Drop the cpu_relax() from spinlock.h as it's not spinlock related in any way.
The code builds, and works in QEMU, but is not tested on hardware.
