[PULL 4/5] x86/loader: expose unpatched kernel
Posted by Gerd Hoffmann 1 week, 2 days ago
Add a new "etc/boot/kernel" fw_cfg file, containing the kernel without
the setup header patches.  Intended use is booting in UEFI with secure
boot enabled, where the setup header patching breaks secure boot
verification.

Needs OVMF changes too to be actually useful.
