xcompile: always use -march=i686
When compiling coreboot for x86 on gcc the compiler is
free to pick whatever defaults it is using at the time of
gcc's compile/configuration when no -march is specified.
Not properly specifying -march then opens up the use of SSE
instructions for compilation units it should not be used such
as the SMM module as this module doesn't save/restore SSE
registers.
