Ok, another alternative indeed.
Before we should decide the technical implementation,
what do we want to achieve, what are our requirements to the system?
* configure cmos options defaults with make menuconfig
* have one single prominent place (per mainboard?) for those options?
* inherit options? Options per component? Like superio serial 0/1 on/off
should be set in cmos instead of dts or compile time?
* simple format for describing the options
* have a tool that creates an "option_table" format file as we have it
now, so we can easily use all the existing code for now
(get_option(...), linuxbios table, lxbios utility....)
* what else...?
