Here is a patchset that contains the preparatory work to enable upcoming
bootindex support in OpenBIOS for SPARC64/PPC.

Patch 1 enables the OFW address generated via the sysbus explicit_ofw_unit_address()
method to always take precendence when generating fw paths, and has already been
discussed on-list with a R-B from Laszlo.

Patch 2 may require further review and discussion and is a consequence of older
device trees having irregular naming conventions for disk nodes. Rather than add
extra string handling complexity in OpenBIOS for handling "/disk" nodes on a
per-interface basis, it is much easier to provide a per-machine option to remove
them completely for these machines and handle the logic in QEMU via a custom
FWPathProvider instead.

Mark Cave-Ayland (2):
  sysbus: always allow explicit_ofw_unit_address() to override address
    generation
  fw_cfg: set the get_boot_devices_list() ignore_suffixes parameter from
    machine property
