PS6, Line 9: Per Fabian:
           : 
           : With these settings enabled COM 1/UART A/serial port 1 gets blocked
           : right after the kernel boots.  It no longer works or responds, which
           : actually means the Linux boot process gets stuck forever when configured
           : to write to ttyS0.
           : 
           : Not using these settings, I have not found any downside.  Serial keeps
           : working, sensors still work, S3 suspend/resume works correctly.
           : 
           : ---
           : 
           : Out of the six settings in this group, three are causing the initial
           : issue, the rest are confirmed necessary to be replicated, with PECI
           : as the reason for one of them. Keith revised this patch to reflect
           : this.
> Understood. […]

For what it's worth, I hereby grant permission to rework/rename/redescribe this commit in any way including removing my authorship or signoff.  I think it's clear I did some work that seemed to work for me, but that Keith did a lot more work that is sound and reasonable.  I think it would improve coreboot if his variant of the work would get merged.

Thanks, Fabian
