firmware in order to take over control of the SMU. Without doing this,
the firmware background process doing fan control will run amok as we
take over the system and crash the management chip.
This is limited to these two machines because our kernel is heavily
dependent on firmware accesses, and so quiescing firmware can cause
nasty problems.
of OFW access semantics, in order to allow future support for real-mode
OF access and flattened device frees. OF client interface modules are
implemented using KOBJ, in a similar way to the PPC PMAP modules.
Because we need Open Firmware to be available before mutexes can be used on
sparc64, changes are also included to allow KOBJ to be used very early in
the boot process by only using the mutex once we know it has been initialized.
