There are some boards that do a significant amount of
work after cache-as-ram is torn down but before ramstage
is loaded. For example, using vboot to verify the ramstage
is one such operation. However, there are pieces of code
that are executed that reference global variables that
are linked in the cache-as-ram region. If those variables
are referenced after cache-as-ram is torn down then the
values observed will most likely be incorrect.
Therefore provide a Kconfig option to select cache-as-ram
migration to memory using cbmem. This option is named
CAR_MIGRATION. When enabled, the address of cache-as-ram
variables may be obtained dynamically. Additionally,
when cache-as-ram migration occurs the cache-as-ram
data region for global variables is copied into cbmem.
There are also automatic callbacks for other modules
to perform their own migration, if necessary.

In the file `COPYING` in the coreboot repository and upstream [1]
just one space is used.
The following command was used to convert all files.
$ git grep -l 'MA 02' | xargs sed -i 's/MA 02/MA 02/'

Our linker script for romstage checks for global variables and
makes the build fail if there are any (on non-AMD systems).
This is great, but having the build fail without any indication
which variables are global is not very useful.
Moving the check to the Makefile allows us to let the linking stage
succeed and reveil which variable names end up in the data and bss
sections of the binary.
To test, add "int foo;" as the first line in src/mainboard/samsung/lumpy/romstage.c
and build coreboot for Lumpy. See the build break the following
way:
LINK cbfs/fallback/romstage_null.debug
Forbidden global variables in romstage:
00006a84 B foo

The error message from romstage is annoying and misleading:
"Do not use global variables in romstage"
Because it can occur even when global variables are not used
in some circumstances, but also because it gives you only a rough
idea where to look. This change sucks but sucks less. We still don't
know which file the problem is in but at least we know if it is data
or bss.
Replace the error message with something that provides more information
and less guessing on the part of the script:
".bss is non-zero size in romstage which is not allowed -- global variable?"
or
".data is non-zero size in romstage which is not allowed -- global variable?"
To test: build coreboot as normal. It builds.
Add
char d[32];
to romstage.c and get the first error message; add
int x = 32;
to romstage.c and get the second.

The bootblock.ld linkerscript is used by romstage. Name it
accordingly to avoid confusion.
