Seems like they still need a bit of cleanup before they get merged. I've
commented on most of the patches, see separate emails.
Overall I'm not sure how I feel about having hacks in the kernel for
systemsim. If it's truly simulating the full system, why can't it simulate
the disk device and network device as well instead of doing things with
magic instructions like it does now?
