Ah, I see what happened. My script fetched the tar file from the
github release tag:
https://github.com/coreboot/coreboot/archive/4.5.tar.gz
Instead of fetching from the official release server:
https://www.coreboot.org/releases/coreboot-4.5.tar.xz
That's why the submodules are not included in the source tar.
What's the distinction between coreboot/src/vboot and the
coreboot/3rdparty/vboot directories? As Peter pointed out,
having the necessary headers self contained in the coreboot
tree would be nice to have.
