Why don't we call it 'tag' then?

Can we drop this first sentence in all the places? I don't see what
value it adds.

Maybe the attributes directory should be called 'table'? Given that
we're exposing the coreboot table contents directly to userspace?

Use %#08x instead?

Can we fill in the size of the data at runtime somehow? Might require
making a different struct bin_attribute for each coreboot entry I
suppose but then we can probably leave out the 'size' attribute and only
have the 'data' and 'tag' attributes.
