Sorry, that was a little cryptic in retrospect. I meant "they should
have the same prefix as the renamed ld*_phys functions, to indicate
that all of these functions are in the same family rather than being
two sets of unrelated functions". As I note later on, if we want the
prefix to be address_space_ rather than as_ for all these
we could do that, though it's a little long and unwieldy.
