Sorry for the delayed reply.
We need to set the starting address of the kernel and fdt to vcpu, which is implemented
by firmware bootloader under other architectures and RISC-V emulators. However, the
RISC-V virtual machine does not have bootloader, so we boot the kernel directly.
In the future, we will support firmware loading.
Before supporting the firmware bootloader, we can add a public interface instead of
modifying the CPU instance directly to comply with the QOM rules.
