Older versions of kexec-tools has a zImage loader that
passes a virtual address as entry point. The elf loader
otoh it passes a physical address as entry point, and
pages are always passed as physical addresses as well.
Only allow physical addresses from now on.

Save and restore ftrace state when returning from kexec jump in
machine_kexec(). Follows the x86 change.

For the time being, this creates far more problems than it solves,
evident by the second local_irq_disable(). Kill all of this off
and rely on IRQ disabling to protect against the VBR reload.

Add kexec jump support to the SuperH architecture.
Similar to the x86 implementation, with the following
exceptions:
- Instead of separating the assembly code flow into
two parts for regular kexec and kexec jump we use a
single code path. In the assembly snippet regular
kexec is just kexec jump that never comes back.
- Instead of using a swap page when moving data between
pages the page copy assembly routine has been modified
to exchange the data between the pages using registers.
- We walk the page list twice in machine_kexec() to
do and undo physical to virtual address conversion.

Rework the kexec code to avoid using P2SEG. Instead
we walk the page list in machine_kexec() and convert
the addresses from physical to virtual using C.

Setup the vbr register in machine_kexec(). This
instead of passing values to the assembly snippet.

The crash kernel entry point is currently checked by the kexec kernel
code and only physical addresses in the reserved memory window are
accepted. This means that we can't pass P2 or P1 addresses as entry
points in the case of crash kernels. This patch makes sure we can start
crash kernels by adding support for physical address entry points.

Presently the NUMA node data isn't saved on kexec. This implements a
simple arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo() for saving off the relevant data.

This patch provides an enhancement to kexec/kdump. It implements the
following features:
- Backup/restore memory used by the original kernel before/after
kexec.
- Save/restore CPU state before/after kexec.
The features of this patch can be used as a general method to call program in
physical mode (paging turning off). This can be used to call BIOS code under
Linux.
kexec-tools needs to be patched to support kexec jump. The patches and
the precompiled kexec can be download from the following URL:
source: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-src_git_kh10.tar.bz2
patches: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec-tools-patches_git_kh10.tar.bz2
binary: http://khibernation.sourceforge.net/download/release_v10/kexec-tools/kexec_git_kh10
Usage example of calling some physical mode code and return:
1. Compile and install patched kernel with following options selected:
CONFIG_X86_32=y
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_JUMP=y
2. Build patched kexec-tool or download the pre-built one.
3. Build some physical mode executable named such as "phy_mode"
4. Boot kernel compiled in step 1.
5. Load physical mode executable with /sbin/kexec. The shell command
line can be as follow:
/sbin/kexec --load-preserve-context --args-none phy_mode
6. Call physical mode executable with following shell command line:
/sbin/kexec -e
Implementation point:
To support jumping without reserving memory. One shadow backup page (source
page) is allocated for each page used by kexeced code image (destination
page). When do kexec_load, the image of kexeced code is loaded into source
pages, and before executing, the destination pages and the source pages are
swapped, so the contents of destination pages are backupped. Before jumping
to the kexeced code image and after jumping back to the original kernel, the
destination pages and the source pages are swapped too.
C ABI (calling convention) is used as communication protocol between
kernel and called code.
A flag named KEXEC_PRESERVE_CONTEXT for sys_kexec_load is added to
indicate that the loaded kernel image is used for jumping back.
Now, only the i386 architecture is supported.

This patch removes the crashkernel parsing from arch/sh/kernel/machine_kexec.c
and calls the generic function, introduced in the generic patch, in
setup_bootmem_allocator().
This is necessary because the amount of System RAM must be known in this
function now because of the new syntax.
