[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 0/5] pvh: add new PVH option rom

[Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com>]

This patch series is based on "[PATCH v3 0/4] QEMU changes to do PVH boot" and
provides a PVH option rom that can be used with SeaBIOS to boot uncompressed
kernel using the x86/HVM direct boot ABI.

Patches 1 and 2 are to prepare the PVH option rom, moving common functions in
the new headers.  Patch 3 adds the new PVH option rom. Patch 4 uses it when we
are booting an uncompressed kernel using the x86/HVM direct boot ABI. Patch 5
adds the support of loading the initrd in the PVH option rom.
