Description

I was playing around with expresscard usb 3.0 adapters on a thinkpad T60 and noticed that coreboot breaks its functionality.
i tested both the stock bios and coreboot revision b2e8bd83647f664260120fdfc7d07cba694dd89e, the logs listed under https://www.coreboot.org/Motherboard_Porting_Guide are included in the 'coreboot' and 'stock' directories.
of course i had my card inserted when i took the logs
lspci shows the card under the stock bios, it works fine. coreboot doesnt seem to do anything with it, its getting no power.
the card i got, as seen in the attached image, has been known to work on GNU/Linux for other people out of the box, apparently not for coreboot.
i'd be glad if coreboot supported expresscards for 2 additional USB ports, thanks for taking a look at it!
