[coreboot] Rettungsboot

[Charlotte Plusplus]

If I had more flash, I would like that too, just for kicks.

With the amount of flash we have, sharing the kernel and initrd doesn't
seem like a bad idea.

If the cmdline for the normal mode can be modified easily by updating the
cbfs with flashrom, I don't see any drawback to using kexec from the shared
kernel
