[coreboot] What happened to the Option ROM options?

Using KGPE-D16 with master. The choices for them have been messed around with in kconfig sometime ago: In /src/device/kconfig ON_DEVICE_ROM_LOAD has for some reason been changed to require VGA_ROM_RUN which makes no sense to me (maybe someone could need option ROM's without VGA option ROM's

The motherboard draws a lot of current initially at start up and my first power supply had an internal protection circuit that would activate and stop it due to overload drawing too much current. Once I upgraded to a higher capacity power supply
