[PATCH v3 0/2] x86: Improve bootstd support
This series provides some bootstd fixes so that IDE can be used reliably for booting a distro. It also includes some documentation on how to boot from coreboot in various scenarios, using QEMU.
With this it is possible to boot Ubuntu 2023.04 from coreboot64, for example.
This series is available at u-boot-dm/metha-working
It depends on https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=365943
Changes in v3: - Update the documentation to use ich9-ahci - Mention that $DISK is a disk-image file - Drop patches already applied to x86/master

Add these options to permit access to more disk types.
Add some documentation as well.
