Intel processors with Broadwell cores are very popular in newer higher-end ChromeOS devices.
Factory firmware support for coreboot and SeaBIOS is spotty, but custom firmware is also available for all Broadwell models as well -- see Firmware.
Full ROM flash is available from CoolStar: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nFZmoRzQ03btPCGVSa4ku6JPQik-SxD__zOd1CoB2yg/edit (for running Linux, you can follow the flashing instructions and install Linux instead of Windows)

- This option is the most invasive and may include bugs or idiosyncrasies that the stock firmware does not
- Fixes Graphics issues associated with the RW_LEGACY
- Fixes several issues related to ACPI
