[flashrom] [PATCH] Split AMD CS5536 chipset enable

Split AMD CS5536 chipset enable in a processor function (Geode RCONF)
and a southbridge function (CS5536 NOR flash control).
This patch has no functional changes.

Is it possible to combine a Geode LX with a CS5535 or even a CS5530?
Is it possible to combine a Geode GX (or earlier) with a CS5536?
If the answer to any of the questions above is "yes", the split probably
makes sense and we should execute the processor specific enable function
inside the new processor enable routine in flashrom.
