Hi,

This patchset updates some tools that use the Coreboot source, fixes a freedom
bug, code and also add two new tools (bucts and nvramtool).

The freedom bug is the bug #66986[1] ("ifdtool: Firmwares with missing source
code present in source code"). It is fixed because the files mentioned in this
bug report are gone in Coreboot 4.22. I've also done a quick grep for words
like "reverse engineering" and that didn't find any nonfree license.

So upstream probably finished moving the nonfree files in a separate
repositories.
