Just to boot to login prompt, these are the numbers for gen_read/write_xer:
helper_myprint - rd_count 231103, wr_count 68897
And it keeps on incrementing, maybe scope of optimization here.
That's not very large considering the total number of instructions executed
during a boot to prompt.
Thoughts, David?
