deprecate MRC 9020MT/SFF (NRI 9020 is default now)

NRI is libre raminit

MRC is binary blob raminit

the libre raminit is stable enough now that it's default

the MRC-based targets will be removed in a future release

Completely stable with graphics, but IOMMU disabled by default; graphics cards only work with IOMMU turned off. Intel graphics works fine with IOMMU turned on. IOMMU is needed for Qubes to work properly. To turn on IOMMU, do this to your ROM before flashing (ONLY do this if using Intel graphics): ./nvramtool -C libreboot.rom -w iommu=Enable
*This* target uses Intel MRC (a binary blob) for memory controller initialisation.
If you want *libre* initialisation (recommended), use the *nri* targets instead,
e.g. dell9020sff-nri_12mb or dell9020mt-nri_12mb
These MRC-based targets will be *removed* in a future Libreboot release. It is
strongly recommended that you use the NRI-based targets (Native RAM initialisation).
This version uses Haswell MRC, which is compatible with the machine.
