Description

Provide a shim layer in loader to condense the Open Firmware device tree to
an FDT. This is how Linux and OS X boot and can avoid some issues with
using Open Firmware at runtime. The code is highly experimental and disabled
by default; it can be turned on by setting the loader environment variable
"usefdt" to a non-NULL value.
