coreboot/default: Re-base all patches
There were a lot of unnecessary patches, such as the VRAM patches; as Nicholas Chin has explained to me, the drivers for these machines will just allocate what RAM they want anyway, so in a lot of cases the extra allocated Video RAM simply reduces the total amount of memory for other uses. In general, we have a lot of patches that have existed for years. A much more aggressive sweep will be done in the next major audit, especially when the revisions are updated again.

+Subject: [PATCH 23/51] nb/haswell: Fully disable iGPU when dGPU is used
+
+My earlier patch disabled decode *and* disabled the iGPU itself, but
+a subsequent revision disabled only VGA decode. Upon revisiting, I
+found that, actually, yes, you also need to disable the iGPU entirely.
+
+Tested on Dell 9020 SFF using broadwell MRC, with both iGPU and dGPU.
+With this patch, the iGPU is completely disabled when you install a
+graphics card, but the iGPU is available to use when no graphics card
+is present.
+
+For more context, see:

+ nb/haswell: Disable iGPU when dGPU is used
+
+And look at the Gerrit comments:
+
+https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/80717/
+
+So, my original submission on change 80717 was actually correct.
+This patch fixes the issue. I tested on iGPU and dGPU, with both
+broadwell and haswell mrc.bin.
