[coreboot] Suspend-to-RAM on Thinkpad X230

[Gert Menke]

Okay, just a short update:
I tried moving the mrc.cache file to the end of the cbfs, so it is now 
on the 4MB chip instead of the 8MB chip:

# ifdtool -f /dev/fd/1 coreboot.rom
File coreboot.rom is 12582912 bytes
00000000:00000fff fd
00500000:00bfffff bios
00003000:004fffff me
00001000:00002fff gbe
Wrote layout to /dev/fd/1

Now I get this:

Updating MRC cache data.
CBFS: 'Master Header Locator' located CBFS at [800100:bfffc0)
CBFS: Locating 'mrc.cache'
CBFS: Found @ offset 3ef2c0 size 10000
find_current_mrc_cache_local: No valid MRC cache found.
flash size 0xc00000 bytes
SF: Detected Opaque HW-sequencing with sector size 0x1000, total 
0xc00000
Need to erase the MRC cache region of 65536 bytes at fffef400
SF: Erase offset/length not multiple of erase size
Finally: write MRC cache update to flash at fffef400
SF: Successfully written 1456 bytes @ 0xbef400
Successfully wrote MRC cache


However, I get the same resume behavior (reboot) as before, and the log 
still says "No valid MRC cache found".
Looks like I need to align the mrc.cache file properly. Going to try 
that next.
