At present all tables are placed starting at address f0000 in memory, and
can be up to 64KB in size. If the tables are very large, this may not
provide enough space.
Also if the tables point to other tables (such as console log or a ramoops
area) then we must allocate other memory anyway.
The bloblist is a nice place to put these tables since it is contiguous,
which makes it easy to reserve this memory for linux using the 820 tables.
Add an option to put some of the tables in the bloblist. For SMBIOS and
ACPI, create suitable pointers from the f0000 region to the new location
of the tables.

Some blobs need a larger alignment than the default. For example, ACPI
tables often start at a 4KB boundary. Add support for this.
Update the size of the test blob to allow these larger records.

It is helpful to be able to see basic statistics about the bloblist and
also to list its contents. Add a 'bloblist' command to handle this.
Put the display functions in the bloblist modules rather than in the
command code itself. That allows showing a list from SPL, where commands
are not available.
Also make bloblist_first/next_blob() static as they are not used outside
this file.

This provides information about a v1 TPM in the system. Generate this
table if the TPM is present.
Add a required new bloblist type and correct the header order of one
header file.

This device has a large set of ACPI tables. Bring these in from coreboot
so that full functionality is available (apart from SMI).

A common check is to see if a blob is present, create it if not and make
sure that the size is large enough. Add a function to handle this.

At present there is no standard way in U-Boot to pass information from SPL
to U-Boot proper. But sometimes SPL wants to convey information to U-Boot
that U-Boot cannot easily figure out. For example, if SPL sets up SDRAM
then it might want to pass the size of SDRAM, or the location of each
bank, to U-Boot proper.
Add a new 'bloblist' feature which provides this. A bloblist is set up in
the first phase of U-Boot that runs (i.e. TPL or SPL). The location of
this info may be in SRAM or CAR (x86 cache-as-RAM) or somewhere else.
Information placed in this region is preserved (with a checksum) through
TPL and SPL and ends up in U-Boot. At this point it is copied into SDRAM
so it can be used after relocation.
