18- centaur: Add indirect XSCOM support
19  Fixes a bug where opal-prd would not be able to recover from a bunch
20  of errors as the indirect XSCOMs to centaurs would fail.
21- xscom: Fix logging of indirect XSCOM errors
22  Better logging of error messages.
23- PHB3: Fix wrong PE number in error injection
24- Improvement in boot_test.sh utility to support copying a pflash binary
25  to BMCs.

30- ipmi-sel: Run power action immediately if host not up
31    Our normal sequence for a soft power action (IPMI 'power soft' or
32    'power cycle') involve receiving a SEL from the BMC, sending a message
33    to Linux's opal platform support which instructs the host OS to shut
34    down, and finally the host will request OPAL to cut power.
35
36    When the host is not yet up we will send the message to /dev/null, and
37    no action will be taken. This patches changes that behaviour to perform
38    the action immediately if we know how.

43- opal-prd: Increase IPMI timeout to a slightly better value
44  Proactively bump the timeout to 5seconds to match current value in petitboot
45  Observed in the wild that this fixes bugs for petitboot.
