Fix qemu-armv7 memory map
Old map does not work on recent qemu. New map puts coreboot to ROM, so it behave more like most real machines would. For details on this map see comment in memlayout.ld Change-Id: If1f3328b511daca32ba93da5a6d44402508b37e9 Signed-off-by: Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/13748 Reviewed-by: Aaron Durbin <adurbin@chromium.org> Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins)
