Description

Hey,

Maybe we want to implement them as well. Or extend the current implementation of coreboot itself. I know only PR is secure but I guess it would be good to have them in a security section with the BP feature.

Research direction

The issue names the current coreboot implementation and the existing BP feature, but no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating those components and the security-related platform support, then clarify which protected-region and flash-protection features are in scope. Done requires an agreed scope before implementation can begin.
