I took another look at those patches and they look fine to me.

I'm not sure what you'd prefer to do with the SeaBIOS release though.
We have a couple of high-level options:

1. Release v1.15.0 this week without these changes (tag 64f37cc5).

2. Commit the smbios 3 changes (and pcie-pci-bridge changes) and
   release v1.15.0 in early January.

I suppose we could commit the changes and try to make a release in
December, but that seems like it would dilute the meaning of a
"release".

What are your thoughts?

Cheers,
-Kevin
