  * patchstatus:  there is no patch => patch needs work

Comment:

 The patch puts the serial port's I/O port at 0x400, where grub2 looks for
 it. That probably makes it "legacy support".

 Needs proper discussion if such legacy tables should be written by
 linuxbios and if so, where such code should end up.
