In addition to common VMCOREINFO's defined in
crash_save_vmcoreinfo_init(), we need to know, for crash utility,
- kimage_voffset
- PHYS_OFFSET
to examine the contents of a dump file (/proc/vmcore) correctly
due to the introduction of KASLR (CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE) in v4.6.
- VA_BITS
is also required for makedumpfile command.
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() appends them to the dump file.
More VMCOREINFO's may be added later.

Primary kernel calls machine_crash_shutdown() to shut down non-boot cpus
and save registers' status in per-cpu ELF notes before starting crash
dump kernel. See kernel_kexec().
Even if not all secondary cpus have shut down, we do kdump anyway.
As we don't have to make non-boot(crashed) cpus offline (to preserve
correct status of cpus at crash dump) before shutting down, this patch
also adds a variant of smp_send_stop().

Since arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() removes a mapping for crash dump
kernel image, the loaded data won't be preserved around hibernation.
In this patch, helper functions, crash_prepare_suspend()/
crash_post_resume(), are additionally called before/after hibernation so
that the relevant memory segments will be mapped again and preserved just
as the others are.
In addition, to minimize the size of hibernation image, crash_is_nosave()
is added to pfn_is_nosave() in order to recognize only the pages that hold
loaded crash dump kernel image as saveable. Hibernation excludes any pages
that are marked as Reserved and yet "nosave."

arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() and arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres()
are meant to be called by kexec_load() in order to protect the memory
allocated for crash dump kernel once the image is loaded.
The protection is implemented by unmapping the relevant segments in crash
dump kernel memory, rather than making it read-only as other archs do,
to prevent coherency issues due to potential cache aliasing (with
mismatched attributes).
Page-level mappings are consistently used here so that we can change
the attributes of segments in page granularity as well as shrink the region
also in page granularity through /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size, putting
the freed memory back to buddy system.

To aid in debugging kexec problems or when adding new functionality to
kexec add a new routine kexec_image_info() and several inline pr_debug
statements.

Add three new files, kexec.h, machine_kexec.c and relocate_kernel.S to the
arm64 architecture that add support for the kexec re-boot mechanism
(CONFIG_KEXEC) on arm64 platforms.
