+Subject: [PATCH 2/6] Allow loading Option ROM (so we can use graphics cards)
+
+Since 49d99fcebc7c3860def51812c2f723ad3e8a4ea3 Option ROMs can't be loaded
+PCI graphics cards anymore when "Graphics initialization" is set to "Use
+native graphics init". This means only onboard graphics can be used until
+the OS or SeaBIOS initialise PCI graphics cards.
+This patch allows us to do a little hack. We can set "Use native graphics
+init" to "Run VGA Option ROMs" and activate "Load Option ROMs on PCI
+devices". This way coreboot will load the Option ROM on PCI graphics cards
+which means payloads like GRUB can display graphics.
+There's only one catch: onboard graphics won't work anymore. Because of this
+we'll include seavgabios.bin (compiled by SeaBIOS) in CBFS. This will give
+us the option to use both PCI graphics cards and onboard graphics that work
+with native graphics init.

+Subject: [PATCH 3/6] Tweak cmos defaults for KCMA-D8 (for a little speed
+ boost)
+
+63xx CPUs have the option to use a reduced latency value inside the crossbar.
+Setting "experimental_memory_speed_boost=Enable" aparently only has an effect
+on 63xx CPUs and may, in certain cases, yield a slight memory bandwidth
+increase (according to Timothy Pearson), but maybe it also works for
+43xx CPUs.
+
+Setting "l3_cache_partitioning=Enable" will increase performance in certain
+situations. See:
+https://developer.arm.com/documentation/100453/0401/functional-description/l3-cache/l3-cache-partitioning?lang=en

+Subject: [PATCH 4/6] Do not use microcode updates on AMD platforms
+
+Coreboot is hardcoding the use of microcode updates on some platforms.
+
+Just nuke it from orbit. This is the libre branch of osboot, so microcode must
+not be used.
