    chromeos: provide option to dynamically allocate ram oops buffer
    
    Fixing the location of the ram oops buffer can lead to certain
    kernel and boot loaders being confused when there is a ram
    reservation low in the address space. Alternatively provide
    a mechanism to allocate the ram oops buffer in cbmem. As cbmem
    is usually high in the address space it avoids low reservation
    confusion.
    
    The patch uncondtionally provides a GOOG9999 ACPI device with
    a single memory resource describing the memory region used for
    the ramoops region.
    
    BUG=None
    BRANCH=baytrail,haswell
    TEST=Built and booted with and w/o dynamic ram oops. With
         the corresponding kernel change things behave correctly.
