    SandyBridge/IvyBridge: Use flash map to find MRC cache
    
    Until now, the MRC cache position and size was hard coded in Kconfig.
    However, on ChromeOS devices, it should be determined by reading the
    FMAP.
    
    This patch provides a minimalistic FMAP parser (libflashmap was too
    complex and OS centered) to allow reading the in-ROM flash map and
    look for sections.
    
    This will also be needed on some partner devices where coreboot will
    have to find the VPD in order to set up the device's mac address
    correctly.
    
    The MRC cache implementation demonstrates how to use the FMAP parser.
