So it is a technology showcase and not required code.

Those two should never be allowed to mix, and Patrick has found one
instance where they can be separated. That's fantastic! Thanks Patrick.

I agree with Stefan that we should not remove the code from the *tree*,
and I also agree with Patrick that this can be cleaned up in many boards.

The question is how we could deal with such technology showcases? I
don't see them belonging in working mainboard code.

Maybe maintain all technologies in a coreboot/showcase or coreboot/reference
mainboard?
