On powerpc-ieee1275, we are running out of memory trying to verify
anything. This is because:

  - we have to load an entire file into memory to verify it. This is
    extremely difficult to change with appended signatures.
  - We only have 32MB of heap.
  - Distro kernels are now often around 30MB.

So we want to claim more memory from OpenFirmware for our heap.
Stefan, Patrick, Daniel, may I ask one of you to work on the [1]
proposal. I want to have this solution implemented.

Is the design in [1] correct just that the patches need forward-porting?
