Somebody in the thread at some point said:

| Cool.  Combining this with the initramfs/kexec stuff that's been
| discussed on the kernel list (cc'd here): the kexec kernel could very
| easily do the magic to read that address as you've described here, and
| pass it in on the kernel command line for the real kernel boot.  The
| point, of course, being to make the network manager on the host side of
| the USB connection happier...

This opens a can of worms for Qi in terms of supporting GTA02 in the
field already with random dynparts to give access to the magic ext2
partition in NAND.
