at present, lbmk can remove microcode updates on images for
a given target, if the target specifies
microcode_required="n" in target.cfg
lbmk then provides images with microcode, and images without,
in a given release. although the user can also remove them
manually, this just makes it a bit more convenient, for those
users who do wish to run without the updates. this functionality
is provided only on those platforms where no-microcode is tested.
well, this behaviour implements a compromise on libreboot policy,
which is to always include microcode updates by default. see:
Binary Blob Reduction Policy
the *canoeboot* project now exists, developed in parallel with
libreboot, and it ships without microcode updates, on the same
targets where lbmk also handled this.
running without microcode updates is foolish, and should not
be encouraged. clean up lbmk by not providing this kludge.
the libreboot documentation will be updated, telling such users
to try canoeboot instead, or to remove the update from a given
libreboot rom - this is still possible, and mitigations such as
PECI disablement on GM45 are still in place (and will be kept),
so that this continues to work well.

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.

TSEG Stage Cache enabled again, because disabling it
did not affect S3 in any way.
Many configs have changed, and debug level is set to 7.
In testing with V-T60 on IRC, it wasn't just removal of
the DDR2 patch that I did, but I re-did the configs too,
in exactly the same way I've done them here, when testing
on an X200 to fix boot issues.
Libreboot does not use defconfigs, instead it uses full
configs, and these have to be updated. I normally just
run make-oldconfig on every config, for revision updates.
However, every now and then, we need to re-do them.
Play it safe and re-do every config. I've double- and
triple-checked that the configs are correct.

in the future, we may start downloading files that aren't
blobs, such as mxm port configs (on mainboards that use
MXM graphics)
this directory will contain all of those files
generally change the language used, across lbmk, to make
use of "vendorfile" instead of "blob"
