- xx30 legacy boards (x230, x230-flash, t430, t430-flash) now rely also on coreboot 4.13
- DOWNSIDE: x230 and t430 legacy boards now rely on WHIPTAIL (NOT FBWhiptail) to have enough space to fit under 7mb)
- xx20 boards moved to 4.13 (no need of xx20-flash boards here since single SPI boards with 7.5mb useable since blobs scripts are required)
- DOWNSIDE: all xx20 boards now have dropbear deactivated, while still having ethernet driver in.
- qemu-coreboot and qemu-coreboot-fbwhiptail switched to coreboot 4.13 WITHOUT TPM SUPPORT (with cryptsetup 2.x support)
- DOWNSIDE:
- coreboot-qemu board CBFS_SIZE=0x700000 -> 0x750000
- coreboot-qemu-fbwhiptail CBFS_SIZE=0x750000 -> 0x780000
- CircleCi build recipe removes 4.8.1 boards altogether
- KGPE-D16 workstation is used as new base build to save workspace layer (we removed one workspace layer)
- Removing one workspace layer will save approx 2 hours of build time on fresh builds
- Removing one coreboot version will save us approx 2 hours of build time on fresh builds
- KGPE-D16 will stay to coreboot 4.11 until forward notice.
- All other board configs SHOULD be built on latest coreboot versions
Set and export currently-used defaults in gui-init, but still
allow for inidividual boards to override via config if desired.

This will allow it to be used elsewhere within the UI.
Rename CONFIG_BOOT_GUI_MENU_NAME to better indicate use/function.

* x230-hotp-verification: revert to coreboot "CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x700000" by disabling board "CONFIG_DROPBEAR=y" and "CONFIG_LINUX_E1000E" to save space per @alex-nitrokey test under #770 to fix#608
* x230-htop-verification board: add clarifications on x230 board differences. Fixes#737#770#608
* X230 board & coreboot config: Fix x230 board, removing dropbear and e1000e driver.
* t430: board and coreboot config par with x230 to circumvent CBFS linked suspend/resume issues.
* modules/linux: Add support for multiple kernel versions
Follow same pattern as used for coreboot. Add existing kernel version
as default for all existing boards.

* modules/linux: Add option to use 4.19 LTS kernel
Add option to use kernel 4.19.139 (current LTS version).
Duplicate existing patches from 4.14.62 as they all apply cleanly.

- Update flashrom module to v1.2.
- Drop Thinkpad x220 patch as it's now properly supported.
- Drop 'laptop=force_I_want_a_brick' from board FLASHROM_OPTIONS
since it's no longer needed.
- Migrate kgpe-d16 patch.
The kgpe-d16 patch needed a complete overhaul when rebased against
flashrom v1.2, and needs close inspection/testing as a result.
The following changes were made from the previous patch:
- dropped addition of 4-byte addressing (4BA), since now supported
- dropped addtiion of Macronix MX25L256 and MX66L512 chips,
since now supported
- added 4BA erase commands for Winbond W25Q256 chip
- dropped code to show progress indicator, since another PR already adds that

mount-usb switched to dynamic USB device detection a while back,
so eliminate instances of CONFIG_BOOT_USB_DEV, and derive the
mounted USB device from /etc/mtab in the one place where it's
actually needed (usb-scan). Clean up areas around calls to
mount-usb for clarity/readability.

Test: Build Librem 13v4, boot ISO file on USB
Signed-off-by: Matt DeVillier <matt.devillier@puri.sm>
This changes Heads' bootscript for the x230 to gui-init and adds config
options needed for it. The config is very similar to the librem13v2 config.
My comparison of startup-time from a power-button press shows 2.5 seconds
more with these changes applied.
That said, the experience is smooth, the GUI is beautiful and easier to use
than the shell and text menu, especially during setup. That's what we
buy with startup time here.
The bios regions of the 12M coreboot image is 7M: 4M and 3 of the 8M split
image. The rest of the 8M image _generated_ with fake data and not usable
on real systems! It's dangerous to create them and suggest flashing them
externally.
That's exactly why the x230-flash build target is there: To
have a self-contained 4M image and enable easy unlocking of the 8M image
using the _original_ data.
the heads-wiki project is updated accordingly.
