Out of curiosity, that means that current coreboot wouldn’t work with an older depthcharge payload?
Yes, that's correct. See the comment about what happens when the GPIO isn't defined here: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/platform/depthcharge/+...
But that's normal for Chrome OS firmware -- incompatible changes in ToT are very common. We use branches to keep each board running on a consistent set of firmware.
