Now crash codes under kernel/ folder has been split out from kexec
code, crash dumping can be separated from kexec reboot in config
items on arm64 with some adjustments.
Here wrap up crash dumping codes with CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP ifdeffery.

Problem:
=======
On arm64, block and section mapping is supported to build page tables.
However, currently it enforces to take base page mapping for the whole
linear mapping if CONFIG_ZONE_DMA or CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 is enabled and
crashkernel kernel parameter is set. This will cause longer time of the
linear mapping process during bootup and severe performance degradation
during running time.
Root cause:
==========
On arm64, crashkernel reservation relies on knowing the upper limit of
low memory zone because it needs to reserve memory in the zone so that
devices' DMA addressing in kdump kernel can be satisfied. However, the
upper limit of low memory on arm64 is variant. And the upper limit can
only be decided late till bootmem_init() is called [1].
And we need to map the crashkernel region with base page granularity when
doing linear mapping, because kdump needs to protect the crashkernel region
via set_memory_valid(,0) after kdump kernel loading. However, arm64 doesn't
support well on splitting the built block or section mapping due to some
cpu reststriction [2]. And unfortunately, the linear mapping is done before
bootmem_init().
To resolve the above conflict on arm64, the compromise is enforcing to
take base page mapping for the entire linear mapping if crashkernel is
set, and CONFIG_ZONE_DMA or CONFIG_ZONE_DMA32 is enabed. Hence
performance is sacrificed.
Solution:
=========
Comparing with the base page mapping for the whole linear region, it's
better to take off the protection on crashkernel memory region for the
time being because the anticipated stamping on crashkernel memory region
could only happen in a chance in one million, while the base page mapping
for the whole linear region is mitigating arm64 systems with crashkernel
set always.

As requested
(http://lkml.kernel.org/r/87ee0q7b92.fsf@email.froward.int.ebiederm.org),
this series converts weak functions in kexec to use the #ifdef approach.
Quoting the 3e35142ef99fe ("kexec_file: drop weak attribute from
arch_kexec_apply_relocations[_add]") changelog:
: Since commit d1bcae833b32f1 ("ELF: Don't generate unused section symbols")
: [1], binutils (v2.36+) started dropping section symbols that it thought
: were unused. This isn't an issue in general, but with kexec_file.c, gcc
: is placing kexec_arch_apply_relocations[_add] into a separate
: .text.unlikely section and the section symbol ".text.unlikely" is being
: dropped. Due to this, recordmcount is unable to find a non-weak symbol in
: .text.unlikely to generate a relocation record against.
This patch (of 2);
Drop __weak attribute from functions in kexec_file.c:
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe()
- arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
- arch_kexec_kernel_image_load()
- arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole()
- arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig()
arch_kexec_kernel_image_load() calls into kexec_image_load_default(), so
drop the static attribute for the latter.
arch_kexec_kernel_verify_sig() is not overridden by any architecture, so
drop the __weak attribute.

Now, that we have linear map page tables configured, keep MMU enabled
to allow faster relocation of segments to final destination.
Cavium ThunderX2:
Kernel Image size: 38M Iniramfs size: 46M Total relocation size: 84M
MMU-disabled:
relocation 7.489539915s
MMU-enabled:
relocation 0.03946095s
Broadcom Stingray:
The performance data: for a moderate size kernel + initramfs: 25M the
relocation was taking 0.382s, with enabled MMU it now takes
0.019s only or x20 improvement.
The time is proportional to the size of relocation, therefore if initramfs
is larger, 100M it could take over a second.

To perform the kexec relocation with the MMU enabled, we need a copy
of the linear map.
Create one, and install it from the relocation code. This has to be done
from the assembly code as it will be idmapped with TTBR0. The kernel
runs in TTRB1, so can't use the break-before-make sequence on the mapping
it is executing from.
The makes no difference yet as the relocation code runs with the MMU
disabled.

If we have a EL2 mode without VHE, the EL2 vectors are needed in order
to switch to EL2 and jump to new world with hypervisor privileges.
In preparation to MMU enabled relocation, configure our EL2 table now.
Kexec uses #HVC_SOFT_RESTART to branch to the new world, so extend
el1_sync vector that is provided by trans_pgd_copy_el2_vectors() to
support this case.

Currently, kernel relocation function is configured in machine_kexec()
at the time of kexec reboot by using control_code_page.
This operation, however, is more logical to be done during kexec_load,
and thus remove from reboot time. Move, setup of this function to
newly added machine_kexec_post_load().
Because once MMU is enabled, kexec control page will contain more than
relocation kernel, but also vector table, add pointer to the actual
function within this page arch.kern_reloc. Currently, it equals to the
beginning of page, we will add offsets later, when vector table is
added.

Always enabled dtb_mem, when it is not used, it is NULL.

Enabling crash dump (kdump) includes
* prepare contents of ELF header of a core dump file, /proc/vmcore,
using crash_prepare_elf64_headers(), and
* add two device tree properties, "linux,usable-memory-range" and
"linux,elfcorehdr", which represent respectively a memory range
to be used by crash dump kernel and the header's location

This patch provides kexec_file_ops for "Image"-format kernel. In this
implementation, a binary is always loaded with a fixed offset identified
in text_offset field of its header.
Regarding signature verification for trusted boot, this patch doesn't
contains CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG support, which is to be added later
in this series, but file-attribute-based verification is still a viable
option by enabling IMA security subsystem.
You can sign(label) a to-be-kexec'ed kernel image on target file system
with:
$ evmctl ima_sign --key /path/to/private_key.pem Image
On live system, you must have IMA enforced with, at least, the following
security policy:
"appraise func=KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK appraise_type=imasig"
See more details about IMA here:

load_other_segments() is expected to allocate and place all the necessary
memory segments other than kernel, including initrd and device-tree
blob (and elf core header for crash).
While most of the code was borrowed from kexec-tools' counterpart,
users may not be allowed to specify dtb explicitly, instead, the dtb
presented by the original boot loader is reused.
arch_kimage_kernel_post_load_cleanup() is responsible for freeing arm64-
specific data allocated in load_other_segments().

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."
