Description

For those who follows, its been a couple of PR that I try to save them, since there is 4kb left in master of freed ME space on those boards for maximized-hotp builds.

I plan to merge https://github.com/linuxboot/heads/pull/2206 soon, and the code comments alone of that pr are now consuming that 4kb compressedfreed space.

It's your time to shine: you're technical, own a x220/t420, want to jump in under #1991 or any other quests under #590 to revive them, be my guest.

Flagging this u=issue with help needed and pinning,
Sorry folks, 8mb spi boards not a priority of mine. Is it one of yours? Shine :)
