The fw_cfg interface can only handle up to 16 bits of data for its streams.
While that isn't too much of a problem when handling integers, we would
like to stream full kernel images over that interface!

So let's extend it to 32 bit length variables.

We need to bump a version here.

The version_id field in vmstate_fw_cfg.  You also have to try to support 
older versions which means you may want to either split cur_offset into 
a high and low or ask Juan what the appropriate vodoo would be.

Juan, I'd really love to learn some new voodoo :-).
This whole new qdev whatever based save format was supposed to make  
things like this easy, right? I would've known what to do with the old  
code ...

I think Juan's mentioned something about writing a doc explaining how to 
use VMState correctly.  I think it would certainly be helpful for 
situations like this.

But the most important part of VMState is that it converts something 
that was previously open coded and opaque to something that is 
data-driven and introspectable.  I think it's done an extremely good job 
of achieving those goals.   As we get everything converted, we can 
potentially figure out some ways to make this all a bit easier to 
understand.  Right now, I think how we support backwards compatibility 
is admittedly awkward.
