Dear Kumar Gala,

This allows us to do things like manipulate device trees before they are passed to a booting kernel or setup memory for a secondary core in multicore situations.
Not all OS types support all subcommands (currently only start, loados, ramdisk, fdt, and go are supported).

This looks mostly OK to me, but I haven't actually tested any of this code yet - can you please comment to what extend you tested it?
I've tested this on FSL 85xx HW. I'm able to boot using a sequence of bootm subcommands + a few other commands as well as plain old bootm.
Ditto for the MPC8360.
Best regards, gvb
