Masked ROMs are the silent killers of boot speed on devices without
memory-mapped SPI flash. They often contain awfully slow SPI drivers
(presumably bit-banged) that take hundreds of milliseconds to load our
bootblock, and every extra kilobyte of bootblock size has a hugely
disproportionate impact on boot speed. The coreboot timestamps can never
show that component, but it impacts our users all the same.
This patch tries to alleviate that issue a bit by allowing us to
compress the bootblock with LZ4, which can cut its size down to nearly
half. Of course, masked ROMs usually don't come with decompression
algorithms built in, so we need to introduce a little decompression stub
that can decompress the rest of the bootblock. This is done by creating
a new "decompressor" stage which runs before the bootblock, but includes
the compressed bootblock code in its data section. It needs to be as
small as possible to get a real benefit from this approach, which means
no device drivers, no console output, no exception handling, etc.
Besides the decompression algorithm itself we only include the timer
driver so that we can measure the boot speed impact of decompression. On
ARM and ARM64 systems, we also need to give SoC code a chance to
initialize the MMU, since running decompression without MMU is
prohibitively slow on these architectures.
This feature is implemented for ARM and ARM64 architectures for now,
although most of it is architecture-independent and it should be
relatively simple to port to other platforms where a masked ROM loads
the bootblock into SRAM. It is also supposed to be a clean starting
point from which later optimizations can hopefully cut down the
decompression stub size (currently ~4K on RK3399) a bit more.
NOTE: Bootblock compression is not for everyone. Possible side effects
include trying to run LZ4 on CPUs that come out of reset extremely
underclocked or enabling this too early in SoC bring-up and getting
frustrated trying to find issues in an undebuggable environment. Ask
your SoC vendor if bootblock compression is right for you.

This change adds armv7-r support for all stages.
armv7-r is an ARM processor based on the Cortex-R series.
Currently, there is support for armv7-a and armv7-m and
armv7-a files has been modfied to accommodate armv7-r by
adding ENV_ARMV7_A, ENV_ARMV7_R and ENV_ARMV7_M constants
to src/include/rules.h.
armv7-r exceptions support will added in a later time.

Certain chipsets don't have a memory-mapped boot media
so their code execution for stages prior to DRAM initialization
is backed by SRAM or cache-as-ram. The postcar stage/phase
handles the cache-as-ram situation where in order to tear down
cache-as-ram one needs to be executing out of a backing
store that isn't transient. By current definition, cache-as-ram
is volatile and tearing it down leads to its contents disappearing.
Therefore provide a shim layer, postcar, that's loaded into
memory and executed which does 2 things:
1. Tears down cache-as-ram with a chipset helper function.
2. Loads and runs ramstage.
Because those 2 things are executed out of ram there's no issue
of the code's backing store while executing the code that
tears down cache-as-ram. The current implementation makes no
assumption regarding cacheability of the DRAM itself. If the
chipset code wishes to cache DRAM for loading of the postcar
stage/phase then it's also up to the chipset to handle any
coherency issues pertaining to cache-as-ram destruction.

This patch expands the existing ENV_<stage> macros in <rules.h> with a
set of ENV_<arch> macros which can be used to detect which architecture
the current compilation unit is built for. These are more consistent
than compiler-defined macros (like '#ifdef __arm__') and will make it
easier to write small, architecture-dependent differences in common code
(where we currently often use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_...), which is
technically incorrect in a world where every stage can run on a
different architecture, and merely kinda happened to work out for now).
Also remove a vestigal <arch/rules.h> from ARM64 which was no longer
used, and genericise ARM subarchitecture Makefiles a little to make
things like __COREBOOT_ARM_ARCH__ available from all file types
(including .ld).

It encourages users from writing to the FSF without giving an address.
Linux also prefers to drop that and their checkpatch.pl (that we
imported) looks out for that.
This is the result of util/scripts/no-fsf-addresses.sh with no further
editing.

a more common _start symbol. The rmodtool will honor
the entry point found within the ELF header. Add
ENV_RMODULE so that one can distinguish the environment

directly use program.ld for the rmodule.ld linker script.

There are cases where rules.h can be pulled in, but the
usage is not associated with a particular stage. For
example, the cpu/ti/am335x build creates an opmap header.
That is a case where there is no stage associated with

As per discussion with lawyers[tm], it's not a good idea to
shorten the license header too much - not for legal reasons
but because there are tools that look for them, and giving
them a standard pattern simplifies things.
However, we got confirmation that we don't have to update
every file ever added to coreboot whenever the FSF gets a
new lease, but can drop the address instead.
util/kconfig is excluded because that's imported code that
we may want to synchronize every now and then.
