You are free to add it, but keep in mind that anything with an AMD APU will 
fail the RYF-certifiable criteria due to SMU and atombios.

If we're going to lower the bar, we should also consider Librem 15. At least 
that one has (should have) a much more durable construction and much better 
screen. If those guys aren't as full of it as they sound, and have figured out 
how to fuse the PCH to disable ME, then RYF'ing a Librem should be less work 
than anything APU.

Please read ISBN 9781430265719.

The ME firmware controls the host CPU reset.
