Why master was not enforcing CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0xBE4FFF as all other 12mb opaque flash chips from ivy bridge? (was 8mb). Merged as emergency fix: untested. Unfortunately reason was that anything CBFS bigger then 8mb will make Haswell boot in 50s, thanks to improper MRC blob we depend on.
Solution would be to switch to NRI #1711, which is not merged upstream.
Board owners: time to participate testing/reviewing/commenting upstream your need/appreciation of memory initialization being free under #1711.
OLD
#1826 was merged moving those boars to untested to prevent users from potential bricking without external programmers.
Testing needed from boards testers (BOARDS_TESTERS.md):
TESTED: Master roms will boot, but after 50s see #1825 (comment)
Therefore, t440p/w541 boards now build UNTESTED tagged board roms. Be warned.
