nb/intel/sandybridge: Always use the same MMCONF_BASE_ADDRESS
'Optimizing' MMCONF_BASE_ADDRESS for the native codepath prevents the use of fallback/normal with both the native raminit and the mrc.bin.
This means that 128MB less is available to devices using the native raminit. Most devices reserve 2048M for non memory resources below 4G, which in most cases is more than adequate. Devices with only 1024M (and that don't use the mrc.bin) are: * lenovo/x220 * lenovo/x230 * lenovo/x131e * lenovo/x1_carbon_gen1
Those could fail to allocate PCI resources, but on at least x220 with a somewhat default configuration (USB3 expresscard, Wireless PCIe card) still boots fine, so one should not expect much problem from this change.
