Author: oxygene

New Revision: 5786
URL: https://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/changeset/5786

Log:
It should not be necessary to read in the rom during CAR setup.
Removing the code preloading reduces the boot time.

Preload code is enabled when doing CARTEST (not exposed
to Kconfig given that it's a pure debugging measure)
