IIRC, there are two types of BYT-i used for IOTG, in INTEL. The CPUIDs
are 0x30673 (for Revision B) and 0x30679 (for Revision D). You can
retrieve CPUID using simplistic CLI: dmesg | grep microcode after
bringing Linux up:

[vuser@localhost ~]$ dmesg | grep microcode
[    0.000000] Intel Spectre v2 broken microcode detected; disabling
Speculation Control
[    3.796088] microcode: sig=0x40651, pf=0x40, revision=0x21
[    3.796202] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.2.
[vuser@localhost ~]$

Daniel,

I suggest to you to put/flash original BYT-I BIOS back and read from
CMOS the CPUID and MCU numbers. Then you'll know exactly what
ingredients you'll need for Coreboot.

Here are some MCU numbers for BYT-I CPUIDs: 0x30673 (Rev. B) and
0x30679 (Rev. D):
