[coreboot] AMD Family 15h and 16h: ASSERTION ERROR

[Marshall Dawson]

Hey Paul,

I don't have either of these two systems, and have only quickly scanned the
Kabini AGESA source.

But if I had to make a guess, I believe the GetDmiInfoMain() likely has a
problem with its return value.  Look at how it returns Flag, but the
function starts by setting Flag=TRUE.  Since Flag is an AGESA_STATUS and
gets downgraded as necessary, it should've been initialized with
AGESA_SUCCESS instead.  The same idea applies to GetType4Type7Info() too.

It's not immediately apparent to me where the apu2 board picks up its
buildOpts, but most systems are configured for BUILDOPT_REMOVE_CDIT TRUE.
I seem to recall CDIT causing an error to be returned if the option wasn't
removed (as in imb-a180/buildOpts.c).

Thanks,
Marshall
