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

Supports loading vmlinux (vmlinux.elf) in ELF format and vmlinux.efi in
PE format.

I tested this on LoongArch 3A5000 machine and works as expected,

$ sudo kexec -l /boot/vmlinux.efi --reuse-cmdline
$ sudo kexec -e

It copys same content to KEXEC_CTRL_CODE each time, could we do this at
boot time?
I think it's possible to have the copy action happen at boot-time or
during the prepare phase. (RISCV in prepare, MIPS in boot-time)

BTW, our system always keep the low-2MB no used, on mips-loongson or
LoongArch. Is that necessary on LoongArch? We cannot use parameter
'mem=YYM' normally but 'mem=YYM@2M' is ok. And the low-2MB is not
in virtual memory management, although we can get it in kernel.
For existing kernels, the low 2M has been reserved by
memblock_reserve(PHYS_OFFSET, 0x200000), maybe it is acceptable to keep
the low 2M behavior.

Yes, we need to use "mem=YM@2M" if the low 2M is reserved.

In kexec/kdump process, we can follows kimage_alloc_control_pages().
When the boot cpu copy complete the second-kernels, all cpus can jump
to a kernel-entry-trampoline which is in kernel image. Then we don't
worry about the code can be destroyed. The kernel-entry-trampoline
get its cpuid, keep non-boot cpus do as kexec_smp_wait and let boot
cpu go kernel-entry. In this way we can drop the low-2MB IMO.
It is also feasible to dynamically allocate control pages, but it is
easier to use a low 2M approach. What do you think, Huacai?
I prefer to use the low 2MB.

Huacai
Low 2MB also is ok for me, like a trick. And should it free
control_code_page here?
