The DT based and ACPI based platform drivers here do the same thing; map
some memory and hand it over to the coreboot bus to populate devices.
The only major difference is that the DT based driver doesn't map the
coreboot table header to figure out how large of a region to map for the
whole coreboot table and it uses of_iomap() instead of ioremap_cache().
A cached or non-cached mapping shouldn't matter here and mapping some
smaller region first before mapping the whole table is just more work
but should be OK. In the end, we can remove two files and combine the
code all in one place making it easier to reason about things.
We leave the old Kconfigs in place for a little while longer but make
them hidden and select the previously hidden config option. This way
users can upgrade without having to know to reselect this config in the
future. Later on we can remove the old hidden configs.

Now that the /firmware/coreboot node in DT is populated by the core DT
platform code with commit 3aa0582fdb82 ("of: platform: populate
/firmware/ node from of_platform_default_populate_init()") we should and
can remove the platform device creation here. Otherwise, the
of_platform_device_create() call will fail, the coreboot of driver won't
be registered, and this driver will never bind. At the same time, we
should move this driver to use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE so that module
auto-load works properly when the coreboot device is auto-populated and
we should drop the of_node handling that was presumably placed here to
hold a reference to the DT node created during module init that no
longer happens.

This simplifies creating device drivers for hardware or information
described in the coreboot table. It also avoids needing to search
through the table every time a driver is loaded.

This patch expands the Google firmware memory console driver to also
work on certain tree based platforms running coreboot, such as ARM/ARM64
Chromebooks. This patch now adds another path to find the coreboot table
through the device tree. In order to find that, a second level
bootloader must have installed the 'coreboot' compatible device tree
node that describes its base address and size.
This patch is a rework/split/merge of patches from the chromeos v4.4
