Here's another idea - how about XML? That would be two steps forward, IMO,
instead of just going from one magic structure to another.
As to just trashing bd_t, does that mean users have to upgrade their
bootloader to use newer kernels, and could not switch back easily if
problems arose? Perhaps the kernel could identify whether the pointer is to
a bd_t or something else and handle it automatically?
