I have. I have the relevant patchset up for review: https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/blobs/+/23315/ and currently always apply it on top of my coreboot build (for the Thinkpad X230 in my case; has then revision "1f" and verified functionality using https://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker or similar tools)
