x86: dts: Remove coreboot_fb.dtsi
There is no need to keep a separate coreboot_fb.dtsi since now we have a generic coreboot payload dts. While we are here, this also remove the out-of-date description in the documentation regarding to coreboot framebuffer driver with U-Boot loaded as a payload from coreboot. As the testing result with QEMU 2.5.0 shows, the driver just works like a charm. Signed-off-by: Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

- Set framebuffer graphics resolution (1280x1024 32k-color (1:5:5))

At present it seems that for Minnowboard Max, coreboot does not pass through
the video information correctly (it always says the resolution is 0x0). This
works correctly for link though.
-Note: coreboot framebuffer driver does not work on QEMU. The reason is unknown

Test with QEMU for bare mode

QEMU is a fancy emulator that can enable us to test U-Boot without access to
