Hi,

I'd like to ask for comments before I develop the actual code - currently
we have 2 workarounds done specifically for Linux:
a. ECAM shift in PCIE
b. SPCR address space definition

Both above are not needed e.g. in FreeBSD and I was requested to add their
optional disabling. The idea is to add dedicated variables that would
optionally allow to disable the quirks, accessible via BootManager.
Questions:

- Would above be acceptable or is there a better way to handle such cases?
- In case it's fine, is there a dedicated place in the BootManager menu to
add custom switches?
- Are you aware of good examples for adding custom options?

Best regards,
Marcin
