This isn't 100% correct actually... First, the base head_32.S (could be called head_6xx.S I suppose) supports a few more calling conventions such as the real OF one, with added support for initrd and cmdline in registers , and the BootX one. Then, calling convention for the other cases is slightly better defined than just having r3 contain a device-tree pointer. The physical address is an important part of it, the fact that r5 is NULL to differenciate from an OF entry too, and we're moving toward the full ePAPR definition.
