Leah Rowe 14b4838d49 coreboot/default: Re-base all patches
There were a lot of unnecessary patches, such as the VRAM
patches; as Nicholas Chin has explained to me, the drivers
for these machines will just allocate what RAM they want
anyway, so in a lot of cases the extra allocated Video RAM
simply reduces the total amount of memory for other uses.

In general, we have a lot of patches that have existed for
years. A much more aggressive sweep will be done in the next
major audit, especially when the revisions are updated again.

Subject: [PATCH 03/51] lenovo/x230: set me_state=Disabled in cmos.default
I only recently found out about this. It's possible to use me_cleaner to
do the same thing, but some people might just flash coreboot and not do
anything with the ME region
With this change, the ME is set to disabled. It's my understanding that this
will accomplish more or less the same thing as me_cleaner, without actually
using that. Of course, I still recommend using me_cleaner
I saw this when I audited coreboot's git history, and saw this:
