[coreboot] ThinkPad X230 alternative flash chips?

[Thierry Laurion]

The x230 has two rom chips. One that has 4mb that boots the system, and one
that is 8mb that holds ME. http://osresearch.net/ planned on using freed
space in the ME after deactivating it, but I haven't seen usage of that
freed space yet.
