I am currently on parental leave and pretty far removed from that hardware
and have very little bandwidth. I added Andre Przywara to the header
(include him in the future) because currently he does much more U-Boot
work on these platforms than me.

The actual user of the semihosting commands is (IIRC) FVP, the software-only
version of vexpress-variants. The semihosting creates software traps
inside the emulated environment.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
