Can't you hear the kernel loader begging to be turned into a device? It's
pleading with us to stop abusing other parts of QEMU and make it a first
class citizen of QEMU.
Is there some kind of initialisation phase where such a device can do its thing?
Unless I'm missing something a "loader" device will be racing the rest
of the VM after reset to populate the memory with the desired
contents, no?
How does it race? Devices normally never touch memory so a loader device will
be the only thing mucking with memory.
