          With such kind of options being merged, any chance that my
old patch to override ARM MTYPE from command line can be merged too?

As I mentioned I'm quite sure your kernel from a different machine
won't boot unmodified on any of the currently supported boards even if
the MTYPE is changed. Add a new board description to boot a kernel
from that board (QEMU isn't suffering an overflow of different
machines now).

I'm not saying your patch can't be merged.

I don't see how the -old-param option is related, it makes the spitz
emulator appear closer to the real hardware.
