When support for the ESTeem 195E (PPC405EP) SBC (hotfoot) board was
added to Linux, a different layout of U-Boot board information was
introduced because the FW of these boards was an ancient U-Boot
without dual ethernet support [1].
Change the QEMU PPC405 board information to match the hotfoot board
and let the ref405ep machine boot from Linux directly. Only the CPU
frequency is required.
This is brutal force. We could possibly add a machine option or a
ref405ep machine class to update the board information accordingly.
A similar change would be required in U-Boot. The alternative is to
change Linux.

Why not use <stdint.h> types?
sure.
I am waiting for some feedback on this hack updating the in-memory
board information. I have the feeling that a new 405 machine
is required for this kernel :/
Thanks,
C.
