So I proposed a set of subcommands that looked like:
bootm start <args>
bootm prep
bootm load_os
bootm load_fdt
bootm load_initrd
bootm jump
bootm restore
is this the right granularity or should we go finer?
"prep" could be:
bootm disable_interrupts
bootm usb_stop
bootm disable_caches
"load_os" stays as is.
"load_fdt" could be:
bootm load_fdt
bootm boardsetup_fdt
bootm fdt_resize
"load_initrd" could be:
bootm load_initrd
bootm fdt_initrd_fixup
"jump" stays as is.
"restore" could be:
bootm enable_interrupts
bootm usb_start
bootm enable_caches
Also I'm adding in:
bootm cmdline
bootm kbd (kernel bd_t)
Finally I'd like to change the subcommands to be prefixed with '_' to
make parsing easier:
bootm _start <args>
bootm _prep
bootm _load_os
...
