Blue Swirl ca20cf32ab Compile loader only once
Callers must pass ELF machine, byte swapping and symbol LSB clearing
information to ELF loader. A.out loader needs page size information, pass
that too as a parameter.

Extract prototypes to a separate file. Move loader.[ch] and elf_ops.h under hw.

Adjust callers. Also use target_phys_addr_t instead of target_ulong for
addresses: loader addresses aren't virtual.

aliguori b6f6e3d3a7 qemu: Add support for SMBIOS command line otions (Alex Williamson)
Create a new -smbios option (x86-only) to allow binary SMBIOS entries
to be passed through to the BIOS or modify the default values of
individual fields of type 0 and 1 entries on the command line.

Binary SMBIOS entries can be generated as follows:

dmidecode -t 1 -u | grep $'^\t\t[^"]' | xargs -n1 | \
        perl -lne 'printf "%c", hex($_)' > smbios_type_1.bin

These can then be passed to the BIOS using this switch:

 -smbios file=smbios_type_1.bin

Command line generation supports the following syntax:

 -smbios type=0[,vendor=str][,version=str][,date=str][,release=%d.%d]
 -smbios type=1[,manufacturer=str][,product=str][,version=str][,serial=str]
              [,uuid=$(uuidgen)][,sku=str][,family=str]

For instance, to add a serial number to the type 1 table:

 -smbios type=1,serial=0123456789

Interface is extensible to support more fields/tables as needed.

aliguori: remove texi formatting from help output
