Yeah, I'll take that option. Although it is weird to have the CSME firmware API
values defined by the uapi, but I guess it is the best we can do here.
I'll need to add a comment on the uapi to make sure that if anybody wants to add
a value, he'll first check the CSME firmware value.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Kalle, anything else before I send v6?
