with a few comments and if you fix the manpage.
BIG FAT NOTE: You do not have to change all the stuff mentioned in the
review (because that would mean I have to review the patch again), but
it would be nice to have the review comments addressed in a followup patch.

Big patch, but still... splitting it wouldn't have helped.

While freeing only tempstr is correct, it's not obvious.

Should we ask for a report here? Not sure, personal preference is not to
ask. If yes, at which message level?

Side note: unsafe_board_handler is a pretty dumb name. Yes, it's my
fault. Still... check_unsafe_board_enable() or something similar would
be a better name.

cb_check_image_matches_board would be a better name IMHO.

The two lines above made me scream WTF?!?
Since you're already fixing that code, can you please merge them into one?
walk = (unsigned int *)(image + size - 0x14);

Actually, "BIOS" wasn't that wrong... let me rephrase the comment so
that others may have a chance to understand the reason:
/* Some NVIDIA chipsets store chipset soft straps (IIRC Hypertransport
init info etc.) in flash at exactly the location where coreboot image
size, coreboot vendor name pointer and coreboot board name pointer are
usually stored. In this case coreboot uses an alternate location for the
coreboot image data. */

If the image looks like a coreboot image according to our checks, but
it's malformed (or not a coreboot image), checking string length with
if (strnlen(mb_vendor, mb_vendor_offset) < mb_vendor_offset)
and aborting otherwise may be a good idea to avoid segfaults. Can be
done in a followup patch, though.

find_mainboard is a misnomer... it should be
get_mainboard_from_cb_record or something like that, and the addr
parameter was never used since the code was first committed. Followup
patch, no need to complicate this one.

I'm not totally happy with those static variables, but I can't offer a
better suggestion (unless we want to extend struct flashctx with
board/device matching info, but anything like that should be a separate
patch.
