Very nice ivybridge board that supports ECC RAM.
NOTE: I couldn't get onboard graphics working yet, but
this was confirmed working with a graphics card (in my
case nvidia quadra k420) booted in text mode on the SeaBIOS
payload. The GRUB payload also works, when loaded from SeaBIOS.
Therefore, this is a SeaBIOS-only board (as far as first payload
is concerned), but you can pick GRUB from the menu.
You could make it "GRUB-only" in practise by setting SeaBIOS
boot order to only load GRUB, and disable the SeaBIOS menu.
We refer to this as "SeaGRUB".
I've made lbmk use biosutilities and uefiextract, to
get at the SMSC SCH5545 Environmental Control (EC) firmware.
This firmware is needed for fan control. This is automatically
downloaded and extracted, from Dell UEFI firmware updates.
As with other blobs such as Intel ME, this firmware is then
scrubbed by the release build scripts. The blobutil "inject"
script can be used to re-insert it.
Of note: there is no fixed offset, but no other blobs to
be inserted in CBFS either, so the offset when re-inserting
on release ROMs should still be the same, and thus the ROM
checksums should match, when running blobutil inject.

It contains a few nice fixs, including an integer
overflow fix, but not many changes have been made
to seabios since the last revision.

The keyboard fix for HP EliteBooks was merged upstream,
so lbmk no longer needs this patch; it comes with GRUB.

coreboot trees/patching is still handled
specifically by "./download coreboot"
command now available in lbmk:
./gitclone coreboot
this *only* creates the directory at:
coreboot/coreboot
this directory is never used in builds.
it is only used by download/coreboot to
create patched trees for each mainboard
don't download it. keep it in lbmk.
libreboot moved to codeberg for git hosting,
and i didn't want to keep lugging around an
extra git repo just for one tiny project.
this fixes the build error:
Error: name not set
Usage: ./download gitmodule [name]
when running:
./download all
running "all" runs all scripts under downloads,
one of which was the gitmodule script itself, therefore
being run without argument
