Most of that though is just packaging.  The meat of the issue
is how do we upgrade the bootloader data.  Do the changes
below sound like everything we need?

 Field name:	loadflags
 Type:		modify (obligatory)
 Offset/size:	0x211/1
 Protocol:	2.00+
 
   This field is a bitmask.
 
   Bit 0 (read):	LOADED_HIGH
 	- If 0, the protected-mode code is loaded at 0x10000.
 	- If 1, the protected-mode code is loaded at 0x100000.

+  Bit 6 (write): KEEP_SEGMENTS

You also want to skip the cli: perhaps a separate flag for this is
appropriate though.

Rest looks fine from an lguest POV.  We don't need the platform data
field either, since we use the first hypercall to get that).
