Subject: [PATCH 6/9] northbridge/gm45/raminit.c: enable GS45 high-performance
 mode

The datasheets for GS45 describe a high- and low-performance mode
for different CPUs. Coreboot currently disables GS45 altogether,
but forcing coreboot to treat high-performance GS45 as GM45 makes
the X200S and X200 Tablet boot if it has the right CPU type.

Hardcode-enable GS45 high-performance mode in coreboot, passing it
off as GM45. This is known to work with all CPUs except the SU
(low performance) models.

The low-performance models are unsupported anyway, requiring
extensive work on the raminit. For now, this patch increases
compatibility to a whole new chipset (GS45), depending on the CPU.
