It's not great having load_kernel() and LoadKernel(). Can you think of another
name? Is this basically just packing params into the struct?

[Che-Liang Chiou, 2011/03/07 05:06:52]

I think you are right. I was thinking that this function can be reused by
rewritable firmware and recovery firmware. But maybe we should wait until the
calling pattern to LoadKernel() is clearer. After that we factor out common part
and share codes.

Why void* rather than char*? If an address perhaps just an u_int32_t address
would do?

[Che-Liang Chiou, 2011/03/07 05:06:52]

I am not sure if I am making the right choice here: I use void* because
vboot_reference uses void* for kernel_buffer field of LoadKernelParams.

If you think we should use char* regardless of what type vboot_reference, I am
okay with that.
