>From v1 submission:

Slim Bootloader(SBL) [see link below] is a small open-source boot
firmware, designed for running on certain Intel platforms. SBL can be
thought-of as fulfilling the role of a minimal BIOS
implementation, i.e initializing the hardware and booting
Operating System.

This driver creates sysfs interfaces which allows user space entities
to trigger update of SBL firmware.

Acknowledgment: Initial draft of the driver code was authored by
Maurice Ma <maurice.ma@xxxxxxxxx>
