See below on why this entire series has a dependency on getting boot0 
usage fixed for some unrelated architectures (I had hoped we'd already 
done this by now).

I agree on this one, but won't be able to merge it until we've resolved 
the abuse of boot0 by some of the other architectures.
For details, see the discussion following Kever's series to adjust this.

I have this on my plate for the next release cycle.
