the only place it's called from just cares about the result.
I forgot the Fixes tag again, sorry, but the one above is still the same.
That's okay I added it. I'll just keep v3 since I have done some
tests with it. If it matches the the old rom then it seems like
a good starting point anyway, can always patch it later.
The only change is the code in it so it should not change any test results
but v3 could work too, it just now seems unnecessary to include that much
code when the short version is the same. Anyway, eiher v3 or v4 is OK.

v3: Instead of -bios none do this when no -bios option given, use
constants for address and rom_add_blob_fixed() to add dummy_fw.
This makes both code and usage a bit simpler.
