	coreboot can publish a CFR tree in its coreboot table to describe firmware setup options. Add a firmware-attributes driver for that table entry under the coreboot firmware driver directory. The driver exposes runtime EFI variable-backed boolean, enum and integer settings through the firmware-attributes ABI. It only registers settings with readable runtime EFI variables, skips suppressed, volatile, dependency-gated and non-runtime options, and keeps read-only or inactive options read-only in sysfs. For settings with an APM_CNT runtime-apply record, write the EFI variable and ask firmware to apply the setting immediately with an I/O port SMI command. If firmware reports a failure, restore the old EFI variable value. Settings without a runtime apply hook keep the EFI variable update and set pending_reboot. Depend on HAS_IOPORT because APM_CNT uses legacy I/O ports. Tested on a Star Labs Byte with firmware 26.07: runtime APM_CNT apply was verified with power_led, and reboot-needed behavior was verified with debug_level.

2026-09-08	firmware: coreboot: Use named initializers for acpi_device_id	Pawel Zalewski
	Use a named initializer for the acpi_device_id fields which makes the code more readable and consistent with how lists are initialized in the rest of the kernel code base. Also drop explicitly setting fields to 0 where it is redundant.

2026-09-02	firmware: Rename google firmware directory to coreboot	Sean Rhodes
	Most drivers in drivers/firmware/google are coreboot table drivers rather than Google-specific firmware drivers. Rename the directory to coreboot and update the Kconfig prompt, build path and maintainer entry. Rename the generic firmware Kconfig symbols to CONFIG_COREBOOT_* at the same time so new configurations describe the firmware interface rather than one vendor. Keep the old CONFIG_GOOGLE_* names as transitional symbols so existing configurations keep selecting the same drivers during the rename. Leave defconfig updates to a separate patch so the configuration churn is easy to review independently.
