Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Remove unneeded MKTME detection
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2024 21:24:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1713929290.git.alison.schofield@intel.com> (raw)

From: Alison Schofield <alison.schofield@intel.com>

MKTME detection was added in anticipation of full kernel support
that never followed. Aside from just good housekeeping, this
cleanup is inspired by users who are confused by the TME/MKTME
messaging during boot.

The first patch cleans up the TME & MKTME detection code and the
second patch removes the unused pconfig code.

Testing was done on a platform supporting MKTME using the BIOS
option to enable/disable MKTME prior to boot.
