The -M bamboo target got introduced by Hollis back in the day as a way
to run KVM code on ppc440. Unfortunately, since then it's been bitrot
quite a bit.

One of the reasons for this is that nobody without a ppc440 board can
actually run the code, so even if there were volunteers to improve the
code, they couldn't because they can't test their changes.

This patch set is enough to at least get a Linux guest kernel up for me.
I hope with this we can have a successfully working 440 target in QEMU.

Thanks to Anthony for the reminder that this is a serious issue.
