with neutered ME, fan control fails. while there are
ways to mitigate it, many users will not, and will
likely see their system overheat, which is very
dangerous.

this bug (failed fan control on neutered ME) only
affects arrandale machines such as lenovo x201.
the newer machines are not affected by this.

other arrandale machines will probably not be added
to libreboot because of this, or they will be subject
to further testing.

arch no longer needs to be set, on multi-tree projects,
and it has been renamed to xarch

the new behaviour is: if xarch is set, treat it as a
list of crossgcc targets and go through the list. set
the first one as the target, for what lbmk builds, but
build all of the defined crossgccc targets

crossgcc_ada is now xlang, and defines which languages
to build, rather than whether to build gcc-gnat

don't handle "romtype" at all, in board target.cfg files

add /dev/null as pike2008 rom on amd boards. this serves
the same purpose, adding them as empty vga roms, to add
an empty rom in cbfs. pike2008 cards cause seabios to hang,
when their oproms are executed, so we insert a fake rom

on i945 thinkpads, use the coreboot config option:
CONFIG_INTEL_ADD_TOP_SWAP_BOOTBLOCK

when set, this enables the same bootblock copy, for use
with bucts. these two cases, namely pike2008 roms and
i945 bootblock copies, no longer need to be handled in code

only call crossgcc for coreboot and u-boot, but use
hostcc for everything else. simplify the checking of
which architecture to compile for. "arch" in target.cfg
files has been modified, to allow further simplification.

without this patch, the logic currently only *barely* avoids
using crossgcc on things like utils, and only works in practise
because, in practise, lbmk only works on x86_64 anyway.

the new logic, as per this patch, is simpler and more robust.

My previous fix to revert didn't fix S3 on GM45, one
of the platforms reported fixed by 78263; I'm merging
that instead, at patch set 10.

It is referenced by 78815/1 which was split from it,
so merge that too (restores overrides of higher values,
on certain platforms that we don't use yet).

https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/78623/10
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/78815/1

Accordingly, update configs to match the new default.

note: me6_update_parser needs to be written, similar
to me7_update_parser, to generate the partition
tables within intel me6 on lenovo bios updates.

the current logic in lbmk goes like this:
mkdir -p vendorfiles/cache/

and save your factory dump as:
vendorfiles/cache/x201_factory.rom

the build system has been modified, in such a way
as to support extracting me.bin (which is the full
one) and then neutering from this.

this is done automatically, if the file is present,
but you must first insert that file there, which means
you'll need a dump of the original boot flash on your
thinkpad x201
