Hypervisors, especially type-1 ones, need the firmware/bootcode to put
their initial guest somewhere in memory and pass the information to it
via platform data. The guest-loader is modelled after the generic
loader for exactly this sort of purpose:
$QEMU $ARGS -kernel ~/xen.git/xen/xen \
-append "dom0_mem=1G,max:1G loglvl=all guest_loglvl=all" \
-device guest-loader,addr=0x42000000,kernel=Image,bootargs="root=/dev/sda2 ro console=hvc0 earlyprintk=xen" \
-device guest-loader,addr=0x47000000,initrd=rootfs.cpio

fw-path-provider.c is only consumed by qdev-fw.c, which itself
is in softmmu_ss[], so we can restrict fw-path-provider.c to
softmmu too.
