[PATCH v3 01/11] kexec: introduce kexec firmware support

[Daniel Kiper]

Some kexec/kdump implementations (e.g. Xen PVOPS) could not use default
Linux infrastructure and require some support from firmware and/or hypervisor.
To cope with that problem kexec firmware infrastructure was introduced.
It allows a developer to use all kexec/kdump features of given firmware
or hypervisor.

v3 - suggestions/fixes:
   - replace kexec_ops struct by kexec firmware infrastructure
     (suggested by Eric Biederman).

v2 - suggestions/fixes:
   - add comment for kexec_ops.crash_alloc_temp_store member
     (suggested by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk),
   - simplify kexec_ops usage
     (suggested by Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk).
