May I ask why exactly this is needed at all? Kernels should be booted
using the bootm command - if somethingis missing there, it should be
added / fixed in this contexzt instead of adding another highly
specialized command.
And *if* we add this, then please let's make it general enough so we
can use it on all architectures without adding a lot of #ifdef mess.

No, just change the design, then. Make it a varargs function and pass
the number of registers as one argument.
