+Subject: [PATCH] Exposing 'DRIVELIST_FILTER_SYSTEM_DRIVES' as a cmake variable
+
+Makes the filtering-behaviour userconfigureable during compile-time.
+This way its easier to configure the imager for flashing SATA or NVME
+Drives installed in your system (because of lack of adapters),
+or if the drives are (accidentally) labled as systemdrives by drivelist.
