  1. memtest86plus: disable all hardening 

    With hardening enabled it reports errors on known-good memory modules
on my Thinkpad X230 (Ivy Bridge). It's the same bug as reported in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/memtest86+/+bug/1071209 but
memtest86+ fails on test NixOS#9 instead of test NixOS#7 (because NixOS#7 in 4.20
became NixOS#9 in 5.01) and with all the addresses multiplied by 2 (I guess
the bug was reported for i686, and I test on x86_64, it was 2012 after
all).

  2. memtest86plus: 5.01 -> 5.01+coreboot-20180113 

    aka 5.01+coreboot-001+

The version maintained by coreboot project is superior to Debian, it
integrates all the Debian patches and fixes a bunch more bugs.

In particular, it fixes SMP freezes and apparent memory errors when
running under coreboot ROM.
