- create section name retrieval
fix: km_init fails to find memory2026-07-26T21:11:47ZNathan Leeme@nwlee.tech2026-07-26T21:11:47Zurn:sha1:e98a69fd70533aa9f9b2bd1367e1ec158579d4c0
This resolves an issue where km_init would fail to find the memory
property if it was not the first node that it looked at.

The ELF parser needs more work, there are more structs to be added.
memcpy was refactored from mem.h into common.h
endianness conversions were standardized in types.h

- fixed an edge case in `kmalloc` where the broken block from a split
may be too small to accomodate another `struct page`. this was fixed
such that if we do not have enough room to allocate another `struct
page` then `kmalloc` simply returns the entire page.
- fixed empty and single-element `free_list` edge cases in `kfree`

the parent commit (b106df2447d23d6b3fcffa7cc87edde218d054f3) discussed
the possibility of creating dtb device discovery. for that, we have
replaced wdt device discovery with dtb device discovery. in the future,
we will use the pci kernel module to use device discovery via a PCI
controller
