What does OVMF stand for?
OVMF stands for Open Virtual Machine Firmware. It is a project to enable support for UEFI within Virtual Machines. It is built upon the EDK II code base and follows the BSD license. You can get more infomation from these websites:

You don't want the printf on this line?
I don't think we must need this printf on this line.
Because in addition to Bios, user maybe need to load other roms, such as VGA rom, in provided bios->load() method. So user can use the printf in bios-load() just before loading the Bios.

Get rid of the address. That is not neccessary in anymore.
We copied this license from other code files in hvmloader, such as seabios.c, hvmloader.c, and so on.
If it's really neccessary, we will get rid of it in our final patch.

What is FD?
FD stands for Firmware Device. It's a persistent physical repository that contains firmware code and/or data and that may provide nonvolatile storage. For the purposes of this architecture specification, the topology of FDs should be abstracted via frimware volume.
