[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/4] prep: Add ELF support

[Andreas Färber]

In order to switch from abondoned OpenHack'Ware to OpenBIOS firmware,
the PReP machine needs to be able to load an ELF BIOS.

ELF loading is adapted from ppc_newworld, the fallback mechanism from sun4m.

Note that since we must register the maximum amount of ROM before attempting
to load an ELF BIOS and since there is no cpu_unregister_physical_memory(),
raw BIOS files such as OHW may now be preceded by unused ROM memory.
