qemubuilder does --fireign and --second-stage, and to run
--second-stage and for normal operations qemubuilder uses a kernel
(and optionally initrd).
Some architectures have stock kernel support ext2/3 built-in, and some
architectures have initrd which handles init= option the way I want it
to (e.g. which used to be the case with mips qemu port, which doesn't
seem to exist anymore).
