I think the community at large here could benefit from some background
and details on FEL.  I found http://linux-sunxi.org/FEL and I feel a bit
more enlightened now, but what exactly is going on?  Are we being loaded
by the ROM or do we get loaded, make use of ROM and then continue
executing?  a new payload gets executed?
