Provide a shim layer in loader to condense the Open Firmware device tree to
...
an FDT. This is how Linux and OS X boot and can avoid some issues with
using Open Firmware at runtime. The code is highly experimental and disabled
by default; it can be turned on by setting the loader environment variable
"usefdt" to a non-NULL value.

Provide support in loader for booting 64-bit PowerPC kernels. Like amd64,
...
64-bit PowerPC kernels are loaded by a 32-bit loader, since nearly all
powerpc64 firmwares execute in 32-bit mode.

Also look for an "elf64 kernel" (for sparc64) and "elf32 kernel" (for
...
powerpc) when building metadata.

Change the device path representation in libofw to use the full firmware
...
path, instead of an internal i386 specific one. Don't try to interpret
a disklabel in ofw_disk.c, open the partition's device node directly and
let the firmware do it. This fixes booting from a partition other than 'a'
on sparc64, which is needed to support more installation methods.
No objection: ppc
