Right, I didn't think about this issue.

Given the amount of effort needed to port coreboot to new chipsets,
how big would such database be, if we limit it to chipsets we support.
For instance northbridges and southbridges (if it applies).

We could also want to only whitelist specific chipset combinations
beforehand.

Example1: We might want some information on Lenovo Thinkpad laptops with
supported northbridge and southbridge.

Example2: Someone is looking for hardware with specific requirements to
do a port.

In both examples, the submission script will whitelist that combination.

Denis.
