Why is this there in the first place?
most chipsets come up with only the top 64KB of flash enabled.
In the old days, we didn't turn that on until linuxbios was running. It's historical.
We have a hard limit that at least the romcc part of the codebase needs to run below that so we can enable more than 64KiB of flash.
It is my intention once I get the minor details firmed up to reexamine romcc and see what I can do size wise. I have come close to getting things smaller but there is some little glitch preventing things from working :(
