mb/*/{device,override}tree: Set touchpads to use detect (vs probed) flag

Historically, ChromeOS devices have worked around the problem of OEMs
using several different parts for touchpads/touchscreens by using a
ChromeOS kernel-specific 'probed' flag (rejected by the upstream kernel)
to indicate that the device may or may not be present, and that the
driver should probe to confirm device presence.

Since c636142b, coreboot now supports detection for i2c devices at
runtime when creating the device entries for the ACPI/SSDT tables,
rendering the 'probed' flag obsolete for touchpads. Switch all touchpads
in the tree from using the 'probed' flag to the 'detect' flag.

Touchscreens require more involved power sequencing, which will be done
at some future time, after which they will switch over as well.

TEST: build/boot at least one variant for each baseboard in the tree.
Verify touchpad works under Linux and Windows. Verify only a single
touchpad device is present in the ACPI tables.

coreboot README

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload.

With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required.

coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS.

Payloads

After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot.

See https://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads.

Supported Hardware

coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

For details please consult:

Build Requirements

  • make
  • gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case).
  • iasl (for targets with ACPI support)
  • pkg-config
  • libssl-dev (openssl)

Optional:

  • gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets)
  • ncurses (for make menuconfig and make nconfig)
  • flex and bison (for regenerating parsers)

Building coreboot

Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.

Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware

If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU.

Please see https://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details.
