    intel/fsp_baytrail: Clear the GNVS area prior to filling
    
    Zero out the GNVS area so that uninitialized portions are defined.
    
    Tests using Microsoft Windows (XP/7/8) gave a bluescreen bugcheck: A5 (ACPI_BIOS_ERROR) with first parameter 0x00001000 (ACPI_BIOS_USING_OS_MEMORY).  Some ACPI enumerated devices use the GNVS area to define whether they're enabled and their MMIO regions. On my custom baytrail-based board and build, these devices are disabled but GNVS had uninitialized data indicating the devices were enabled with improper MMIO regions.
    
    Should investigate further to see where the GNVS device values are set if enabled and make sure they are set to valid values even when the devices are disabled via the mainboard/devicetree.cb.
