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 all users of the coreboot_table_find function have been updated
to hang off the coreboot table bus instead, remove it.

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.

Coreboot (http://www.coreboot.org) allows to save the firmware console
output in a memory buffer. With this patch, the address of this memory
buffer is obtained from coreboot tables on x86 chromebook devices
declaring an ACPI device with name matching GOOGCB00 or BOOT0000.
If the memconsole-coreboot driver is able to find the coreboot table,
the memconsole driver sets the cbmem_console address and initializes the
memconsole sysfs entries.
The coreboot_table-acpi driver is responsible for setting the address of
the coreboot table header when probed. If this address is not yet set
when memconsole-coreboot is probed, then the probe is deferred by
returning -EPROBE_DEFER.
