Version: 4.12.6-1
Severity: normal


Dear Debian folks,


Since Linux 4.12 the Linux kernel ships the module
*memconsole_coreboot*, which allows to access the coreboot console
messages stored in the CBMEM console area in the memory. After loading
the module, the log can be read from `/sys/firmware/log`.

Currently, the whole section of Google firmware is disabled.

```
$ grep GOOGLE_FIRMWARE /boot/config-4.12.0-1-686-pae
# CONFIG_GOOGLE_FIRMWARE is not set
```

It’d be awesome, if you enable the module.


Thanks,

Paul
