8e465298e2 Major rework of how we copy data into kernel space.
We now talk to the memory and mmu instances directly rather than using the
OpenFirmware "claim" method.

eea923d7f8 Make the openfirmware entry point function pointer non-static so that it
can be passed to the kernel.

66631c00de - Use the cell_t type definition for Open Firmware arguments in
combination with requisite casts as this avoids fatal side
   effects on 64-bit architectures.
 - Add the OF_alloc_phys function.

cae2c81dc2 Mega-patch for OpenFirmware loader support.
- Flesh out ofw_readin routine.
- Add OpenFirmware load and exec routines.
- Make sure memory allocation for the kernel is done correctly.
- Change the way the heap is allocated so as to make it easier to deallocate
  when we hand over.
- Add a command to print memory maps similar to the one for ia64.

With this patch, I can now load and hand over to a kernel on my iMac.  There
are some problems with OpenFirmware routines failing after the hand over that
still need to be addressed.

4cc1860f9b OpenFirmware/PowerPC loader, part 2.
As of this patchset, the loader builds (under NetBSD/macppc), boots, interacts
and talks to BOOTP/NFS servers.

(main.c was moved from boot/ofw/libofw to boot/ofw/common but has no revision
 history)

146a7d5318 "Ok, my loader's now up to putting up a prompt. It probes disks partially
but can't boot from them yet."

Thanks to Stephane Potvin for the some of the code in this set.
