Agree, that would be nice to have (although I wouldn't make that a hard
requirement for merging).

Kevin,
Thanks for the comments. I'll work your feedback (and any other

- after 10/18, we're generating tables 100% consistent with SeaBiOS
- after 14/18, we use e820 to generate type 19 (memory area) tables
- after 18/18, we expect SeaBIOS to check fw_cfg for a full set of
tables and an entry point (e.g., we need a version of SeaBIOS whi
