with neutered ME, fan control fails. while there are
ways to mitigate it, many users will not, and will
likely see their system overheat, which is very
dangerous.
this bug (failed fan control on neutered ME) only
affects arrandale machines such as lenovo x201.
the newer machines are not affected by this.
other arrandale machines will probably not be added
to libreboot because of this, or they will be subject
to further testing.

note: me6_update_parser needs to be written, similar
to me7_update_parser, to generate the partition
tables within intel me6 on lenovo bios updates.
the current logic in lbmk goes like this:
mkdir -p vendorfiles/cache/
and save your factory dump as:
vendorfiles/cache/x201_factory.rom
the build system has been modified, in such a way
as to support extracting me.bin (which is the full
one) and then neutering from this.
this is done automatically, if the file is present,
but you must first insert that file there, which means
you'll need a dump of the original boot flash on your
thinkpad x201
