rk3288: Handle framebuffer through memlayout, not the resource system
We've traditionally tucked the framebuffer at the end of memory (above
CBMEM) on ARM and declared it reserved through coreboot's resource
allocator. This causes depthcharge to mark this area as reserved in the
kernel's device tree, which may be necessary to avoid display corruption
on handoff but also wastes space that the OS could use instead.
Since rk3288 boards now have proper display shutdown code in
depthcharge, keeping the framebuffer memory reserved across the handoff
(and thus throughout the lifetime of the system) should no longer be
necessary. For now let's just switch the rk3288 implementation to define
it through memlayout instead, which is not communicated through the
coreboot tables and will get treated as normal memory by depthcharge.
Note that this causes it to get wiped in developer/recovery mode, which
should not be a problem because that is done in response to VbInit()
(long before any images are drawn) and 0 is the default value for a
corebootfb anyway (a black pixel).
Eventually, we might want to think about adding more memory types to
coreboot's resource system (e.g. "reserved until kernel handoff", or
something specifically for the frame buffer) to model this situation
better, and maybe merge it with memlayout somehow.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:34713
TEST=Booted Jerry, noticed that 'free' now displays 0x7f000 more bytes
than before (curiously not 0x80000 bytes, I guess there's some alignment
waste in the kernel somewhere). Made sure the memory map output from
coreboot looks as expected, there's no visible display corruption in
developer/recovery mode and the 'cbmem' utility still works.
