From: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

Remove obsolete comments/data from the file. Add in three CVEs to ignore.
Two are qemu CVEs which upstream aren't particularly intersted in and aren't
serious issues. Also ignore the nasm CVE found from fuzzing as this isn't
a issue we'd expose from OE.
