Can you help me understand what is going on with this technique?
Does com.apple.Boot.plist only need to have "mach_kernel_linux" in
it to boot Linux? Where does it get the kernel and initrd from?

mach_kernel_linux is atv-bootloaders mach_kernel renamed. There is a
linux kernel and initramfs inside it. The AppleTV EFI firmware reads
the com.Apple.Boot.plist and that tells EFI firmware what to load,
could be named anything.
From that point, it's a standard atv-bootloader. This method just
does a switch of the plist to boot atvos or atv-bootloader.
