 *    96 bytes of Stable Storage is optional [...]. Failure to provide the
 *    optional locations from 96 to 192 results in the loss of certain
 *    functionality during boot."
 *
 *    Since locations between 96 and 192 are the various paths, most (if not
 *    all) PA-RISC machines should have them. Anyway, for safety reasons, the
 *    following code can deal with only 96 bytes of Stable Storage, and all
 *    sizes between 96 and 192 bytes (provided they are multiple of struct
 *    device_path size, eg: 128, 160 and 192) to provide full information.
 *    The code makes no use of data above 192 bytes. One last word: there's one
 *    path we can always count on: the primary path.
