No, it is always 8 bytes long. Does not say anywhere that it can be of 
another size.

The patch below fixes the issue on the SLOF side. Your job? :)
So, I revert the QEMU patch then and will post this. I just
wonder if other 6 bytes are used (or can be used) anyhow by someone
but I need to find SAM-5 spec first, does not seem very easy :-/

btw why was it x@ but not x@-be? I mean yes, is it the same on ppc
but would help a lot in reading this write-only language :)
