Documentation: Use correct KiB/MiB units instead of KB/MB
Fix a common mistake of using KB/MB where KiB/MiB is what actually is meant. 1 MB = (10^3)^2 = 1000000 1 MiB = (2^10)^2 = 1048576 Change-Id: I78327652b6c6526318071a9d4bafd7ec279ea614 Signed-off-by: Evgeny Zinoviev <me@ch1p.io> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/39685 Reviewed-by: Angel Pons <th3fanbus@gmail.com> Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org>
