cpu/intel/p4-netburst: skip caching rom on model_fxx
An unidentified combination of speculative reads and branch predictions inside WRPROT-cacheable memory can cause invalidation of cachelines and loss of stack on models based on NetBurst microarchitecture. Therefore disable WRPROT region entirely for all family F models. As an extreme example, just changing the location of a constant string passed to printk() has been witnessed to make a the boot fail early on in romstage.
