Thanks, that description was very helpful.  Would you accept a patch
with adding a comment describing this?

I will put it on my queue to add some comments for ASF.

It appears that there is no way of disabling ASF; is that a true
statement?

Turning off ASF is just a matter of changing some bits in NVRAM
and recalculating the checksum.  If you need the tool to do this,
I'll have someone send it to you.

Note that on some of the blade servers, I believe ASF is vital
and should not be disabled.
