Yes.  One is in the kernel, one isn't.  Or, are you asking why I didn't
just copy the kernel code?  If so, I probably should have.

Hrm, we almost need a library of code shared between the kernel &
the bootwrapper.  Sort of illegal but it would save duplicating code
like the flat dt code.

Comments?
