If a board is not uniquely identifiable by PCI device/subsystem IDs, a
string can be specified to be looked for (case-sensitive, substring or
anchored) for now in one of the following DMI items in addition to matching
the PCI IDs:
 - System Manufacturer
 - System Product Name
 - System Version
 - Baseboard Manufacturer
 - Baseboard Product Name
 - Baseboard Version

Strings are anchored re-like (^ at the beginning, $ at the end), but
there are no plans to support full regular expressions and matched to any
of the mentioned fields.

The match is only made if DMI info is available and the string matches.
If no DMI info is available and the PCI IDs match, a warning is printed
as the board can not be autodetected.

It's still open to discussion whether we add an DMI override switch to
specify a string that will definitely match, and whether this switch is
only used if no DMI is available or whether it overrides or augments DMI
data.

DMI data is currently read using dmidecode. This tool is available for
all major platforms except MacOS X. I heard that there also is a MacOS X
version of dmidecode, but didn't investigate that.

Some programmers (most notably FT2232SPI) use fallback_* and noop_*,
but those functions lived inside internal.c and were unavailable if no
PCI-based programmers were compiled in.

Move those functions to the new file programmer.c. Thanks to Patrick
Georgi for finding this.

Move that function to udelay.c and compile internal.c only if really
needed. physmap.c is only needed if the programmer is internal or a PCI
card. Make its compilation conditional.

We could run it after chipset enable, but it definitely has to happen
before board enable because the board enable usually accesses the
SuperI/O. With this patch, it is possible to add a struct superio to the
board enable table for more accurate matching in case subsystem IDs are
ambiguous. This patch focuses on the generic infrastructure aspect and
on support for IT8712F/IT8716F.

Thanks go to Adrian Glaubitz and Ward Vandewege for testing.

Make various pieces of code conditional on support for internal
programming. Code shared between PCI device programmers and onboard
programming is now conditional as well.

It is now possible to build only with dummy support:
make CONFIG_INTERNAL=no CONFIG_NIC3COM=no CONFIG_SATASII=no
CONFIG_DRKAISER=no CONFIG_SERPROG=no CONFIG_FT2232SPI=no

This allows building for a specific use case only, and it also
facilitates porting to a new architecture because it is possible to
focus on highlevel code only.

Note: Either internal or dummy programmer needs to be compiled in due to
the current behaviour of always picking a default programmer if -p is
not specified. Picking an arbitrary external programmer as default  
wouldn't make sense.

Build and runtime tested in all 1024 possible build combinations. The
only failures are by design as mentioned above.

The two existing SiS chipset enables (compared to the 28 in this patch)
were refactored, and one of them was fixed.

A function to match PCI vendor/class combinations was added to generic
code.

Tested on the "Elitegroup K7S5A". Results are somewhat unexpected (some
PCI settings seem to be inaccessible, but it still works).

This is not based on any docs, but rather on detailed analysis
of existing opensource code for some of the chipsets.

Thanks to for Adrian Glaubitz testing.

Example make commandline if you want only internal programmers:
make CONFIG_FT2232SPI=no CONFIG_SERPROG=no CONFIG_NIC3COM=no
CONFIG_SATASII=no CONFIG_DRKAISER=no CONFIG_DUMMY=no

Of course, all of the CONFIG_* symbols can be mixed and matched as
needed. CONFIG_FT2232SPI is special because even if it is enabled, make
will check if the headers are available and skip it otherwise.

FT2232 and IT87 programmers used functions of the dummy programmer
instead of fallback functions.

The dummy programmer is a "real" programmer with possible side effects
and its functions should not be abused by other programmers. Make
FT2232 and IT87 use official fallback functions instead. Create
fallback_shutdown(). Create fallback_chip_writeb(). Convert the
programmer #defines to an enum.

Add chip_{read,write}n to the external flasher infrastructure which
read/write n bytes at once.

Fix a few places where the code used memcpy/memcmp although that is
strictly impossible with external flashers.
Place a FIXME in the layout.c code because usage is not totally clear
and needs to be fixed to support external flashers.

As a nice side benefit, we get a noticeable speedup for builtin flash
reading which is now a memcpy() of the full flash area instead of a
series of single-byte reads.

Some MMIO accesses used volatile, others didn't (and risked
non-execution of side effects) and even with volatile, some accesses
looked dubious.

Since the MMIO accessor functions and the onboard flash accessor
functions are functionally identical (but have different signatures),
make the flash accessors wrappers for the MMIO accessors.

For some of the conversions, I used Coccinelle. Semantic patch follows:

@@ typedef uint8_t; expression a; volatile uint8_t *b; @@ - b[a] + *(b
+ a) @@ expression a; volatile uint8_t *b; @@ - *(b) |= (a); + *(b) =
*(b) | (a); @@ expression a; volatile uint8_t *b; @@ - *(b) = (a); +

Use chipaddr instead of volatile uint8_t * because when we access chips
in external flashers, they are not accessed via pointers at all.

Benefits: This allows us to differentiate between volatile machine
memory accesses and flash chip accesses. It also enforces usage
of chip_{read,write}[bwl] to access flash chips, so nobody will
unintentionally use pointers to access chips anymore. Some unneeded
casts are removed as well. Grepping for chip operations and machine
memory operations doesn't yield any false positives anymore.

Compile tested on 32 bit and 64 bit Linux.

The emulation works by splitting 32 bit accesses into 16 bit accesses
and 16 bit accesses into to 8 bit accesses. That way, external flashers
can mix and match the amount of emulation they need.
