[PATCH v8 0/4] firmware: Add coreboot CFR firmware attributes driver

Move the firmware attributes class helper out of platform/x86, rename
the coreboot-table firmware driver directory from google to coreboot, and
add a coreboot CFR firmware attributes driver.

Changes in v8:
- Add a preparatory include-order cleanup before moving the firmware
  attributes class helper.
- Add direct includes for __packed and container_of(), use scoped cleanup
  for EFI names and the driver mutex, and document the efivar lock
  requirement on private helpers.
- Replace the duplicated CFR record walkers with one checked iterator that
  distinguishes malformed input from the end of a record list.
- Validate enum entries before accessing them and propagate malformed child
  records instead of treating them as absent.
- Restore the EFI variable after a failed runtime apply without retrying
  the failed firmware operation, and only emit a change event when the new
  EFI value remains stored.
- Document the possible-values size limit and why CFR entries without a
  usable runtime EFI variable are skipped.

Changes in v7:
- Restore the existing include order in converted platform/x86 drivers
  and add Oliver's Tested-by to the helper move.
- Use for loops for CFR record walks, document pointer-based value
  validation and intentionally ignored record types, and remove a
  redundant PAGE_SIZE check.
- Validate the CFR payload checksum before parsing it.
- Make EFI writes transactional, lock EFI reads, and expose settings
  read-only when EFI writes are unavailable.
- Skip settings beneath suppressed or dependency-gated forms, propagate
  enclosing read-only or inactive state, and bound CFR form nesting.
- Propagate transient probe failures, preserve APM token zero, and reject
  enumeration values that cannot fit in the sysfs output buffer.

Testing:
- x86_64 defconfig W=1 build of coreboot-cfr.o on upstream master.
- v7 x86_64 and UML allmodconfig W=1 builds of the driver and helper.
- Runtime APM_CNT apply and reboot-needed behavior on a Star Labs Byte with
  firmware 26.07 and Linux 6.17.
