Great.  

I've been testing on a few systems with a functional variant of the 1st
+ 2nd patch back ported to older TI CDP kernels.  So far I've only ran
into positive side effects.  No noticeable load, pass normal functional
tests, and still able to hit all low power states.

In that variant I just added a load_start() function in addition to the
load function and converted all the in tree callers to use this as they
all called load() then start() in order anyway.  This left the API
behavior the same but optimized all current users.

I did get my ETM adaptor board back so I have been able to verify
directly.  ETM is cool in that you can get (depending on filtering)
almost a 60 second complete capture of instruction execution during some
use case.
