Comment (by JordanCrouse):

 More....

 The processor type should be CONFIG_MGEODE_LX so we can pull in the
 correct configuration settings for the GX.  Currently it uses the i586
 processor type.  The L1 cache shift for the 586 is wrong, and it doesn't
 pull in the MMX copy, which we support.

 CONFIG_MTRR doesn't help - we don't have MTRRs

 CONFIG_ACPI should be turned off - its just extra bits we don't need. (and
 QEMU shouldn't be using it)

 CONFIG_APM should be turned off for the same reasons

 HW_RANDOM_GEODE is only valid for LX processor

 CONFIG_HPET isn't needed - no HPET hardware on the device

 CONFIG_FIRMWARE_EDID - not needed, we don't do EDID on this platform with
 the DCON panel anyway

 USB_UHCI isn't needed - we use OHCI and EHCI
