The same VGA OPROM binary is used for a whole set of different chipsets.
However, the PCI header specification does not have a way to express
that. The main system firmware has to know that, for a 0x0126 device it
has to look for the 0x0106 OPROM. Hence coreboot has a mapping function
for most newer (Intel) chipsets.
