I agree that this needs cleaning up at some point, as control flow seems to
jump randomly across these files. But I live in hope that the MMIO decoder
will die at some point soon and that should kill off much of io.c and
platform.c anyway. What about all the other stuff? Do you have a plan
already about: (a) what subsystems/functions we have to support; and (b)
what filenames you think they belong in? Renames are a pain for some people
so I'd like any rename to happen only once.
