Leah Rowe 7cebee25ff grub.cfg: delete option to boot from CD/DVD
it's confusing, broken and most people nowadays don't use optical drives

it's not even possible in most setups anyway

Leah Rowe c98308c499 grub.cfg: don't use */? wildcards. they slow down the boot
hardcode everything. in practise, the new logic will work just the same in
almost all cases, for most people, but it works around performance issues in
grub. cleanup of grub.cfg will be done in the next commit

Leah Rowe 0ea263129a grub.cfg: optimize search_isolinux
GRUB is slow at device enumeration. This patch works around it in the same way
as vitali64's recent patch.

Vitali64 cff081c6db Fix grub's slow boot
On many boards, grub takes a very long time to
search for a grub.cfg file on the disk.
The problem is the search_grub function which
takes a long time to complete.
I (vitali64) studied the grub.cfg from 2016 and
the grub.cfg from 2021 and optimized the
grub.cfg. It should be faster now.

Leah Rowe 9938fa14b1 Fix broken SpeedStep on GM45 laptops such as ThinkPad X200, T400, T500, W500
Coreboot is enabling PECI on these CPUs which, according to Intel erratum, must
only be done after loading microcode updates, otherwise the CPUID feature set
becomes corrupted. That's my understanding, and I think this is why SpeedStep
is broken. To be specific, it could but but operating systems no longer detect
that the feature is supported. In any case, belgin on IRC found the commit in
coreboot, after a bisect, enabling PECI. This commit in Libreboot adds a patch,
reverting coreboot's PECI patch.

Leah Rowe eed25bd220 update coreboot and nuke tianocore
tianocore is a liability for the libreboot project. it's a bloated mess, and
unreliable, broken on many boards, and basically impossible to audit.

i don't trust tianocore, so i'm removing it.

Each page had the GFDL license declaration on it, but this is unnecessary due
to <https://libreboot.org/license.html> being linked in the footer on each
page. It clearly defines your rights when accessing the site.
