librems vs mainline have:
- mei module not compiled in
- Streamline modules/linux Makefile helpers so that one asks on console for new Kconfig options to be y/n, another one to do olddefconfig (accept new defaults)
- Exercice proves again that oldconfig exposes new things added into kernel by default as opposed to defconfig format.
- Add TCP Syn cookies to all linux configs (all boards add CDC tethering AFAIK. Add this protection by default)
- Remove unneeded network card drivers from librems common and unify
- Remove unneeded microsoft surface drivers from librems common and unify
- Remove WMI embedded Binary MOF driver CONFIG_WMI_BMOF
- Unify removed Kconfig options from x230 ported to 6.1.8 to librems common
- Verify qemu (AMD) changes working (note, there is clock source watchdog that would need to be investigated seperately for QEMU TCG mode, that is, not KVM)
- Review crypto backend requirements/unify once more
- Removed bunch of unused stuff under QEMU Q35 (AMD)
Q/A:
- CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE vs CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_FULL? CONFIG_RANDSTRUCT_NONE now.
- CONFIG_LDISC_AUTOLOAD=y?
- CONFIG_PTP_1588_CLOCK_OPTIONAL=y?
- CONFIG_X86_THERMAL_VECTOR=y?
- ACPI-WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) mapper device (PNP0C14) enabled by ACPI_VIDEO and depended by DRM drivers.
- ACPI_VIDEO seems needed.
- CONFIG_INPUT_VIVALDIFMAP=y anabled by CONFIG_KEYBOARD_ATKBD (AT/PS2 Keyboard)

- Closes https://github.com/linuxboot/heads/pull/1452
- coreboot: Take Talos II 0.7 release coreboot config file that was inside of cbfs and use it as a base upstream.
- linux: Readd sysctl and proc requirements for cbmem to work.
TODO: fix gpg2 module so that the following doesn't happen (a ppc64 thing. Can't figure out why):

gpg: error running '//bin/dirmngr': probably not installed
gpg: failed to start dirmngr '//bin/dirmngr': Configuration error
gpg: can't connect to the dirmngr: Configuration error
gpg: no default secret key: No dirmngr
gpg: signing failed: No dirmngr
```
dirmngr is deactivated per configure statement --disable-dirmngr, and works as expected on x86

prepare_thumb_drive: default to creating 10% LUKS container on usb drive, prompts for passphrase is not provided and scan drives if no --device specified
NOTE: qemu usb_thumb drive of 128 mb are not big enough so that 10% of it (12mb) can be used to create thumb drive.
Adds:
- e2fsprogs to support ext4 filesystem creation through mke2fs
- add /etc/mke2fs.conf so that mke2fs knows how to handle ext2/ext3/ext4
- removes mke2fs support from busybox
- bump busybox to latest version which adds cpu accelerated hash functions (not needed per se here)
- Adds exfatprogs to have mkfs.exfat and fsck.exfat
- Adds prepare_thumb_drive /etc/luks-functions to be able to prepare a thumb drive with percentage of drive assigned to LUKS, rest to exfat
- Modify most board configs to test space requirements failing
- Talos2 linux config: add staging Exfat support
- Make e2fsprogs and exfatprogs included by default unless explicitely deactivate in board configs
- Change cryptsetup calls : luksOpen to open and luksClose to close to addresss review
- etc/luks_functions: cleanup
GOAL here is to have secure thumb drive creation which Heads will be able to use to backup/restore/use generated GPG key material in the future (next PR)
It only extends PCR10 and logs it separately.
Added entries are to compensate disabling IMA which selects those config
options.

- Based on initial server board
- Uses whiptail as opposed to fbwhiptail (was slow and output fuzzy)
- Simple fix to have dual KVM(BMC) and vga output for consoles
Reasoning for dropping fbwhiptail support is that:
- it is impossible to output framebuffer content through remote BMC console.
- A workstation board config could output to fbwhiptail for VGA and give remote recovery shell access through BMC
- If someone shows interest for that, qemu-coreboot-tpm boards can be used as reference.
- slowness/fuzzyness of fbwhiptail output through AST would still need to be fixed in kernel drivers. Not a priority here.
Limitation:
- Since whiptail is sent to both consoles:
- If one console goes to recovery shell, recovery shell access invalidate TPM PCR4 measurements.
- The other console won't be aware that TPM measurements were invalidated, and will consequently:
- not be able to unseal TOTP if refreshed
- not be able to unseal TPM disk unlock key on default boot
- A reboot will fix this.
