Currently we set the start of the .text section to be 4Mb for pSeries.
In situations where the zImage is &gt; 8Mb we'll fail to boot (due to
overlapping with OF).  Move .text in a zImage from 4MB to 64MB
(well past OF).

We still will not be able to load large zImage unless we also move OF,
to that end, add a note to the zImage ELF to move OF to 32Mb.  If this
is the very first kernel booted then we'll need to move OF manually by
setting real-base.

This also extends the code to handle 32-bit ELF vmlinux files as well
as 64-bit ones.  This is sufficient for booting on new-world 32-bit
powermacs (i.e. all recent machines).
