works for me.  I'll make these changes.

I don't plan on dealing with the header info you asked about (beyond  
reporting the number of memrsv).  I've given you the framework, I'll  
leave it to you to figure out how to compute the values you want :)

I also have some questions about how we can "dynamically" grow the  
device tree so we don't have to pad the .dtb's
