In case you did not notice, the chain of events leading the patch to disable
the boot from partitionless disk was about someone facing hung system.=20

So, your proposal is that we should just step on those users and prefer
partitionless boot (the "precious feature" which will be quite unusable when
vendors are stopping to provide CSM - which is the reason why we are trying=
 so
hard to improve UEFI support).

What we can do, we can provide an option to enable partitionless boot at bu=
ild
time, but it can not be default, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, this also leads us to position where we need to choose betwe=
en
"fancy" feature and reliable boot.
