[coreboot] Getting serial output from w83627hf?

[Alp Eren Köse]

By the way I do not have a "CMC state machine binary", which it says:
#We don't ship that, but booting without it is bound to fail
in the src/southbridge/intel/sch/Makefile.inc file. What is it, how can get
it?

Is it likely for that to cause this serial output problem??

Thanks in advance.
