[PATCH 3/7] powerpc: use read_file() in kernel and initrd loading
Andre Przywara

Fri Oct 30 11:26:56 PDT 2015
Replace the unsafe read-loops in the powerpc kernel image loading
function with our new and safe read_file() wrapper.
This should fix random fails in kernel image loading, especially
from pipes and sockets.
