Dear coreboot folks,
looking at the differences of Intel’s SPI drivers, there is

haswell: remove explicit pcie config accesses
Now that MMCONF_SUPPORT_DEFAULT is enabled by default remove
the pcie explicit accesses. The default config accesses use
MMIO.
Searching the code for that Kconfig variable, I get the following
results
$ git grep MMCONF_SUPPORT_DEFAULT

and I wonder why this option is not selected for more platforms or even
enabled by default (for systems having `MMCONF_SUPPORT`)? Reading the
AMD whitepaper it claims that the Linux kernel can determine if MMIO is
there during runtime [3]. Though I have no idea if that is only possible
because of the firmware setting things up correctly beforehand.
Additionally for Intel systems `MMCONF_SUPPORT` (without `_DEFAULT`)
seems to be selected in each mainboard where for AMD systems it is done
under `src/cpu`.
Thanks,
Paul
