I think it depends to some extent whether things will need rewriting to be
made cross-architecture. In particular if this requires interface changes.
This means either breaking existing guests, or having to support both
interfaces.
That's a reasonable stance to take. I don't think anything in the tree
right now presents that problem. I'll start sending out some patches
and if you have specific concerns, we can talk about them 1-by-1.
e.g. the extboot stuff seems like something that should be usable by all
targets, except that the current interface looks like it's inherently x86
specific.
Well with extboot in particular, the only interface is between the
extboot option ROM and QEMU and I don't think that breaking that
interface will matter much in practice.
