Here's a combined patch which also implements --prefix for Coreboot (and on
Coreboot it's the only option for automated boot we provide so far).

	* kern/ieee1275/init.c (grub_machine_set_prefix): If `grub_prefix'
	is non-empty, use it to set the `prefix' environment variable instead
	of the usual approach.
	* kern/i386/linuxbios/init.c (make_install_device): Remove function.
	(grub_machine_set_prefix): Use `grub_prefix' to set the `prefix'
	environment variable instead of dummy make_install_device().

	* kern/i386/ieee1275/startup.S: Include `<grub/machine/kernel.h>'.
	(start): Insert a data section, with `grub_prefix' variable.
        * kern/i386/linuxbios/startup.S: Likewise.

	* include/grub/powerpc/ieee1275/kernel.h [!ASM_FILE] (grub_prefix):
	New variable reference.
	* include/grub/i386/ieee1275/kernel.h (GRUB_KERNEL_MACHINE_PREFIX):
	New macro.  Defines offset of `grub_prefix' within startup.S (relative
	to `start').
	(GRUB_KERNEL_MACHINE_DATA_END): New macro.  Defines the end of data
	section within startup.S (relative to `start').
	* include/grub/i386/coreboot/kernel.h: Likewise.

	* util/elf/grub-mkimage.c (add_segments): Receive `prefix' parameter.
	Overwrite grub_prefix with its contents, at the beginning of the
	first segment.
	(main): Understand -p|--prefix.
