Issue #540 has been updated by Angel Pons.

Even though bypassing Boot Guard is possible on Skylake, the ME on Broadwell 
uses a completely different ISA for its CPU core (Skylake uses a mini-x86 core, 
Broadwell and earlier use some ARCompact thing?). So backporting the bootguard 
bypass thing is significantly more complicated because of that.

Feature #540: Support for Lenovo ThinkPad X250 - the competitor to the shortly 
added HP EliteBook 820 G2
https://ticket.coreboot.org/issues/540#change-1853

* Author: akjuxr3 akjuxr3
* Status: New
* Priority: Normal
* Category: board support
* Target version: none
* Start date: 2024-05-22
* Affected hardware: Lenovo Thinkpad X250
----------------------------------------
Coreboot now have support for the HP EliteBook 820 G2. This is great, but sadly 
the keyboard is for a person using Thinkpad keyboards forever not usable.
The Thinkpad X250 is the competitor to the HP EliteBook 820 G2.

The X250 also have a Full-HD IPS screen. This would also fix the problems many 
people have with the X230 and spend much time and effort to get a Full-HD IPS 
screen running in the X230.

Nico Huber have(had?) such a X250:

Other coreboot developer also seem to have a X250:

Have someone taken a deeper look into the Thinkpad X250? Is there something 
special why suddenly the HP EliteBook 820 G2 got supported instead of a typical 
Thinkpad like it was the case for years at coreboot?
