I don't think you should need a vmlinux_alloc for this platform.

I think this should be the end of platform_init.  The actual device
tree mangling should instead be done from the .fixups hook function.
The simple reason is that in general we want to defer as much as
possible until after the console_open so that we can get error
messages.  The more complicated reason is that looking ahead to when
we're using libfdt instead of flatdevtree.c, we may need an extra step
that prepares the device tree for read/write access (with libfdt, an
fdt_open_into()).  That won't happen until after platform_init(), but
will be before .fixups().

Hrm... more-or-less by definition, cuboot will be using the device
trees included in the kernel tree.  So why can't we just fix the mpc
device trees so the soc node is just called "/soc" instead of having to
use this find by type stuff.

This should probably just be 'clock-frequency' on the soc node (since
the soc node represents the on-chip bus).  But to fix that I guess
we'd need parallel changes to the kernel proper.
