Aha! No code changes needed?

Normally everything goes via Gerrit, but because you prefer that I
create the patch it is a good idea to use the mailing list.

OK! Please review http://review.coreboot.org/292 if it is the
correct change and let me know.

No problem. Thanks for your help!

Yes, I have heard similar stories about the great firewall
before. I am happy that you can participate on the mailing list!

Nothing to forgive.

Yes the patch is right.

Once patched we can use "power_on_after_fail" in cmos.layout to control
this feature.

Without this patch the "power_on_after_fail" has been ignored.

I run it for just 2 days and seems OK.

Anyway not sure it is OK or not for a long run. I think it should be OK since
it is a trivial patch.

Thanks,
