[coreboot] Adding 740G support to RS690 code

I took a quick look at the rs740 rpr. It is true that it is almost the
same as rs690. The only difference I got is the device id of internal
graphics. Since it can be got by typing lspci, I guess it doesn't hurt
anyone if I tell you. The rs740 (which I think is also 740G) is 796E,
rs740M is 796F.

I don't have 740 board here. Even if I had, my boss would be mad if I
did this. He believes his job is higher priority.

If you can try it, you can modify the device id and try to get the VGA
Option Rom. I think that is only thing you have to do.

Hi Zheng,

since the AMD web site says the 740G is just a shrunk 690G with new
graphics, would it be possible to add 740G support to the RS690 code
easily? Can we use the RS690 code without changes?

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
