vboot: prepare for x86 verstage
In order to support x86 verstage proper the work buffer
needs to live in cache-as-ram. However, after cache-as-ram
is torn down one still needs the verification results to
know which slot was selected. Though the platforms with
a dedicated SRAM can just use the work buffer in SRAM, the
x86 cache-as-ram platforms need a place to stash the
results. For that situation cbmem is employed. This works
because when cbmem is initialized cache-as-ram is still
enabled. The VBOOT_DYNAMIC_WORK_BUFFER case assumes
verified boot doesn't start until after cbmem is up. That
doesn't change, but it's a goal to get rid of that option
entirely once all other x86 platforms are moved over to
pre-romstage vboot.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:44827
BRANCH=None
TEST=Built and booted glados with pre-romstage verification
as well as VBOOT_DYNAMIC_WORK_BUFFER case.
