mainlining shenanigans

When kexec was converted to DTB, the dtb address was passed between machine_kexec_prepare() and machine_kexec() using a static variable. This is bad news if you load a crash kernel followed by a normal kernel or vice versa - the last loaded kernel overwrites the dtb address. This can result in kexec failures, as (eg) we try to boot the crash kernel with the last loaded dtb. For example, with: the crash kernel fails to find the dtb. Avoid this by defining a kimage architecture structure, and store the address to be passed in r2 there, which will either be the ATAGs or the dtb blob. Fixes: |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
