ELOG: Support GSMI in CPT/PPT southbridge SMI handler
In order to support the GSMI interface the SMI handler needs
to find and use the state save area from the same CPU that
initiated the SMI. In this case it is a synchronous SMI
resulting form an IO write to port 0xB2.
To find the right CPU state save area iterate over the region
until the "IO Misc Info" field reports the expected value and
then proceed to use that state save area.
This is needed because the coreboot SMI handler only executes on
one core, and that core is non-deterministic. It is likely that
the core executing the C SMM handler is not the same one that
actually did the IO write to 0xB2 and generated the SMI.
The GSMI parameter buffer is passed as a pointer to EBX in the
tate save area, and the GSMI command is extracted from EAX before
it is used as the return value.
This interface is tested by enabling CONFIG_GOOGLE_GSMI in the
kernel and generating events and verifying that they end up
in the event log.
