Why are you doing this?  Why can't you just use a standard zImage
format and bootloader like all other systems use?  It just seems
to me you are coding yourselves deeper into a hole where every
little kernel interface change means a new boot rom.

I would suggest just creating a standard interface to calling
an image and passing information.  Create a function in the
embed_config.c to parse it, and call it a day......
