[v6,07/14] kexec: add KHO support to kexec file loads

Commit Message

From: Alexander Graf <[e-mail]>

Kexec has 2 modes: A user space driven mode and a kernel driven mode.
For the kernel driven mode, kernel code determines the physical
addresses of all target buffers that the payload gets copied into.

With KHO, we can only safely copy payloads into the "scratch area".
Teach the kexec file loader about it, so it only allocates for that
area. In addition, enlighten it with support to ask the KHO subsystem
for its respective payloads to copy into target memory. Also teach the
KHO subsystem how to fill the images for file loads.
