This patch introduces the Google Vital Product Data driver.
This driver reads Vital Product Data from coreboot tables and then
creates the corresponding sysfs entries under /sys/firmware/vpd to
provide easy access for userspace programs (does not require flashrom).
The sysfs is structured as follow:
/sys/firmware/vpd
|-- ro
| |-- key1
| `-- key2
|-- ro_raw
|-- rw
| `-- key1
`-- rw_raw
Where ro_raw and rw_raw contain the raw VPD partition. The files under
ro and rw correspond to the key name in the VPD and the the file content
is the value for the key.

This patch expands the Google firmware memory console driver to also
work on certain tree based platforms running coreboot, such as ARM/ARM64
Chromebooks. This patch now adds another path to find the coreboot table
through the device tree. In order to find that, a second level
bootloader must have installed the 'coreboot' compatible device tree
node that describes its base address and size.

Coreboot (http://www.coreboot.org) allows to save the firmware console
output in a memory buffer. With this patch, the address of this memory
buffer is obtained from coreboot tables on x86 chromebook devices
declaring an ACPI device with name matching GOOGCB00 or BOOT0000.
If the memconsole-coreboot driver is able to find the coreboot table,
the memconsole driver sets the cbmem_console address and initializes the
memconsole sysfs entries.
The coreboot_table-acpi driver is responsible for setting the address of
the coreboot table header when probed. If this address is not yet set
when memconsole-coreboot is probed, then the probe is deferred by
returning -EPROBE_DEFER.

This patch splits memconsole.c in 2 parts. One containing the
architecture-independent part and the other one containing the EBDA
specific part. This prepares the integration of coreboot support for the
memconsole.
The memconsole driver is now named as memconsole-x86-legacy.

The GOOGLE_SMI Kconfig symbol depends on DMI and selects EFI. This
causes problems on other archs when introducing DMI support that depends
on EFI, as it results in a recursive dependency:
arch/arm/Kconfig:1845:error: recursive dependency detected!
arch/arm/Kconfig:1845: symbol DMI depends on EFI
Fix by changing the 'select EFI' to a 'depends on EFI'.

Is it meaningful/useful to enable EFI_VARS but not EFI?
That's what GOOGLE_SMI does. Make it enable EFI also.
Fixes this kconfig dependency warning:
warning: (GOOGLE_SMI) selects EFI_VARS which has unmet direct dependencies (EFI)

In order to keep Google's firmware drivers organized amongst themselves,
all Google firmware drivers are gated on CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE=y, which
defaults to 'n' in the kernel build.

This patch introduces the 'memconsole' driver.
Our firmware gives us access to an in-memory log of the firmware's
output. This gives us visibility in a data-center of headless machines
as to what the firmware is doing.
The memory console is found by the driver by finding a header block in
the EBDA. The buffer is then copied out, and is exported to userland in
the file /sys/firmware/log.

The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for
accessing hardware.
Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information.
Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their
op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used.
This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command
outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various
limitations over time, but all are included herein.
This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either
a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM
strings of the FADT ACPI table. This logic happens in
gsmi_system_valid().
