Good to know you will be working on U-Boot ACPI support!

I've spent a couple of hours today to enable the QEMU support for
U-Boot and here you go:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/468145/
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/468149/

Note this is preliminary but should be able to enable you to run
U-Boot on QEMU, either bare or as a coreboot payload.
