soc/intel/apollolake: enable cache-as-ram paging for glk
Add support and enalbe cache-as-ram paging for glk to work around
a cache-as-ram corruption issue. glk executes verstage, romstage,
and FSP-M directly out of cache-as-ram (just like apl). However,
the front end on glk is very agressive about pulling cache lines
into L1I for potential execution. When the snoops hit in the L1D
and the cache lines are dirty the processor writes the line back.
However, there is no backing store for the dirty lines to go. As
such when the line is pulled back in the value is all 0xff's,
corrupting cache-as-ram.
To fix the issue one needs to enable paging with NX (no execute)
permissions which prevents the above actions from happening because
the TLB will indicate that shouldn't be fetched into the instruction
cache since data will be marked no execute.
The generated page tables are added to cbfs and only added to the
COREBOOT cbfs as they are only consumed in the early cache-as-ram
stages.
The page tables generated with:
$ go run util/x86/x86_page_tables.go \
--iomap_file=src/soc/intel/apollolake/glk_page_map.txt \
--metadata_base_address=0xfef00000 \
--pdpt_output_c_file=src/soc/intel/apollolake/pdpt.c \
--pt_output_c_file=src/soc/intel/apollolake/pt.c
