NULL is passed. The address of the HCDP table can be found by
iterating over the configuration tables in the EFI system table.
To avoid more duplication, a function can be called with the GUID
of interest. The function will do the scanning. Use the function
in all places where we iterate over the configuration tables in
an attempt to find a specific one.
Bump the loader version number as the result of this.

Previous kernels unwantingly depended on this mapping, but as
of version 1.123 of src/sys/ia64/ia64/machdep.c this dependency
has been removed. Consequently, one has to update the kernel
before updating the loader. The documented/recommended upgrade
will suffice in this case.
Due to a visible (from the kernels point of view) change in
behaviour, bump the loader version number from 0.3 to 1.0.

register r8. We continue to write the bootinfo block at the same
hardwired address, because the kernel still expects it there.
It is expected that future kernels use register r8 to get to the
bootinfo block and don't depend on the hardwired address anymore.
Bump the loader version once again due to the interface change.
Most significantly (from an interfacing point of view) is the
support for the FPSWA pointer passing. Even though that was added
4 months ago, it's probably not a bad idea to bump the version
number to reflect this.
