[SeaBIOS] [coreboot] Booting Windows 8 failed

[Zheng Bao]

The same SeaBIOS image and same win8 hard drive can boot Mullins and Kabini.
So I believe the SeaBIOS and hard drive are both OK.

Since it is a new APU, there might be some potential problem in Coreboot. But I have
no way to find it out. What I am looking for is the way to debug at Windows bootloader
stage, before the kernel image is loaded.

for sure - no issues booting Win8/8.1/10TP on the Haswell ChromeOS devices using SeaBIOS 1.8.0
