Just a couple very minor comments. I haven't tested it, but I was involved
with the original implementation and testing of this code.

Technically, this isn't actually useful. As long as we never start this
IOP, it can't ever send or be sent any messages. We currently leave the
SCC IOP in bypass mode and access the SCC chip directly.
Perhaps it would be better to allocate it at the beginning of iop_start
if it is not already allocated?

The if/else above isn't useful if it is run before the call to iop_start.
However, it's also useless if it is called immediately after the call to
iop_alive which is now below. It was supposed to eventually be called in
the background on a regular schedule, but that never happened.
