Right now the IPL device always starts from address 0x10000 (the usual
Linux entry point). To run other guests (e.g. test programs) it is
useful to use the IPL PSW from address 0. We can use the Linux magic
at 0x10008 to decide.

v2->v3:
	- check for iplpsw to avoid assert on file errors
	- use 4 bytes at 4 instead of 8 bytes at 0
v1->v2:
	- use LINUX_MAGIC_ADDR define
	- use assert for valid iplpsw pointer
	- add endianess conversion

I trust you that this is the right thing to do :)

In case you respin: Can this be ipl_psw, please?

"use the address of the IPL PSW"?

Is this ever reached now? In any case, it might make sense to move this
up, as the "could not load kernel 'plahh'" message seems more useful
than "Could not get IPL PSW"...

Also, further below we copy ipl->cmdline if we think we're dealing with
a Linux image. Would it make sense to explicitly check for the Linux
magic there as well? (Separate patch, of course.)

Can/should netboot do a similar check? It uses KERN_IMAGE_START
unconditionally if it wasn't an ELF file.

Well we use the IPL PSW (and we need the address to get that) See the * before iplpsw.

Hmm, Right. If kernel_size < 0  then magic and ipl_psw should be NULL and we
error out early

I think we already changed that there (I asked for that change).
