Coreboot changed a few years ago to include an overflow flag. Update the
structure to match this.
This comes from coreboot commit:
6f5ead14b4 ("mb/google/nissa/var/joxer: Update eMMC DLL settings")
Note: There are several implementations of this in coreboot. I have chosen
to follow the one in src/lib/cbmem_console.c
