generic: improve MIPS kexec support

It is based on patches from the linux-longsoon-community git tree:
http://dev.lemote.com/cgit/linux-loongson-community.git/

Now the kernel can use the command line parameter from kexec-tools.

Runtime tested on ar71xx with 2.6.39.4 (the wathdog must be stopped
before executing the new kernel). Compile tested with lantiq (3.1.4)
and brcm47xx (3.0.12).

+Subject: MIPS: Add crash and kdump support
+
+From: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1025/
+
+Hello folks,
+
+Please find here MIPS crash and kdump patches.
+This is patch set of 3 patches:
+1. generic MIPS changes (kernel);
+2. MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec/kdump code (kernel);
+3. Kexec user space MIPS changes.
+
+Patches were tested on the latest linux-mips@ git kernel and the latest
+kexec-tools git on Cavium Octeon 50xx board.
+
+I also made the same code working on RMI XLR/XLS boards for both
+mips32 and mips64 kernels.
+
+Best regards,
+Maxim Uvarov.
+
+------
+[ Zhangjin: Several trivial building failure has been fixed.
+
+Note: the 2nd patch can not be cleanly applied, but may be a good
+reference for the other board development:
+
+	+ MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec,kdump support
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1026/
+
+And the 3rd patch has already been merged into the mainline kexec-tools:
+
+	+ some kexec MIPS improvements
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1027/
+
+kexec-tools is available here:
+
+	+ http://horms.net/projects/kexec/
+	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools.git

+Subject: MIPS: Kexec: Enhance the support
+
+Changes:
+  o Print more information in machine_kexec() for debugging
+    E.g. with this information, the kexec_start_address has been found
+    it was wrong with 64bit kernel / o32 kexec-tools. Which must be
+    fixed later.
+  o Link relocate_kernel.S to a section for future extension
+    This allows more functions can be added for the kexec relocation
+    part even written in C. to add code into that section, you just need
+    to mark your function or data with __kexec or
+    __attribute__((__section__(".__kexec.relocate")))
+
+TODO:
+
+1. Make 64bit kernel / o32|n32|64 kexec-tools works
+
+Fix the user-space kexec-tools, seems the tool only work for 32bit
+machine. So, we need to add 64bit support for it. The address of the
+entry point(kexec_start_address) is wrong and make the "kexec -e" fail.
+the real entry point must be read from the new kernel image by the
+user-space kexec-tools, otherwise, it will not work.  The above 64bit
+support tested is 64bit kernel with o32 user-space kexec-tools. The root
+cause may be the different definition of virt_to_phys() and
+phys_to_virt() in the kexec-tools and kernel space for 64bit system /
+o32 kernel.
+
+Ref: http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-08/msg00149.html
+
+2. Pass the arguments from kexec-tools to the new kernel image
+
+Please refer to: "MIPS: Loongson: Kexec: Pass parameters to new kernel"

+Subject: MIPS: Get kernel parameters from kexec-tools
+
+Before, we simply use the command lines from the original bootloader,
+but it is not convenient. Now, we accept the kernel parameters from the
+--command-line or --append option of the kexec-tools.  But If not
+--command-line or --apend option indicated, will fall back to use the
+ones from the original bootloader.

+Subject: MIPS: Add crash and kdump support
+
+From: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1025/
+
+Hello folks,
+
+Please find here MIPS crash and kdump patches.
+This is patch set of 3 patches:
+1. generic MIPS changes (kernel);
+2. MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec/kdump code (kernel);
+3. Kexec user space MIPS changes.
+
+Patches were tested on the latest linux-mips@ git kernel and the latest
+kexec-tools git on Cavium Octeon 50xx board.
+
+I also made the same code working on RMI XLR/XLS boards for both
+mips32 and mips64 kernels.
+
+Best regards,
+Maxim Uvarov.
+
+------
+[ Zhangjin: Several trivial building failure has been fixed.
+
+Note: the 2nd patch can not be cleanly applied, but may be a good
+reference for the other board development:
+
+	+ MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec,kdump support
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1026/
+
+And the 3rd patch has already been merged into the mainline kexec-tools:
+
+	+ some kexec MIPS improvements
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1027/
+
+kexec-tools is available here:
+
+	+ http://horms.net/projects/kexec/
+	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools.git

+Subject: MIPS: Kexec: Enhance the support
+
+Changes:
+  o Print more information in machine_kexec() for debugging
+    E.g. with this information, the kexec_start_address has been found
+    it was wrong with 64bit kernel / o32 kexec-tools. Which must be
+    fixed later.
+  o Link relocate_kernel.S to a section for future extension
+    This allows more functions can be added for the kexec relocation
+    part even written in C. to add code into that section, you just need
+    to mark your function or data with __kexec or
+    __attribute__((__section__(".__kexec.relocate")))
+
+TODO:
+
+1. Make 64bit kernel / o32|n32|64 kexec-tools works
+
+Fix the user-space kexec-tools, seems the tool only work for 32bit
+machine. So, we need to add 64bit support for it. The address of the
+entry point(kexec_start_address) is wrong and make the "kexec -e" fail.
+the real entry point must be read from the new kernel image by the
+user-space kexec-tools, otherwise, it will not work.  The above 64bit
+support tested is 64bit kernel with o32 user-space kexec-tools. The root
+cause may be the different definition of virt_to_phys() and
+phys_to_virt() in the kexec-tools and kernel space for 64bit system /
+o32 kernel.
+
+Ref: http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-08/msg00149.html
+
+2. Pass the arguments from kexec-tools to the new kernel image
+
+Please refer to: "MIPS: Loongson: Kexec: Pass parameters to new kernel"

+Subject: MIPS: Get kernel parameters from kexec-tools
+
+Before, we simply use the command lines from the original bootloader,
+but it is not convenient. Now, we accept the kernel parameters from the
+--command-line or --append option of the kexec-tools.  But If not
+--command-line or --apend option indicated, will fall back to use the
+ones from the original bootloader.

+Subject: MIPS: Add crash and kdump support
+
+From: http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1025/
+
+Hello folks,
+
+Please find here MIPS crash and kdump patches.
+This is patch set of 3 patches:
+1. generic MIPS changes (kernel);
+2. MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec/kdump code (kernel);
+3. Kexec user space MIPS changes.
+
+Patches were tested on the latest linux-mips@ git kernel and the latest
+kexec-tools git on Cavium Octeon 50xx board.
+
+I also made the same code working on RMI XLR/XLS boards for both
+mips32 and mips64 kernels.
+
+Best regards,
+Maxim Uvarov.
+
+------
+[ Zhangjin: Several trivial building failure has been fixed.
+
+Note: the 2nd patch can not be cleanly applied, but may be a good
+reference for the other board development:
+
+	+ MIPS Cavium Octeon board kexec,kdump support
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1026/
+
+And the 3rd patch has already been merged into the mainline kexec-tools:
+
+	+ some kexec MIPS improvements
+	http://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/1027/
+
+kexec-tools is available here:
+
+	+ http://horms.net/projects/kexec/
+	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools.git

+Subject: MIPS: Kexec: Enhance the support
+
+Changes:
+  o Print more information in machine_kexec() for debugging
+    E.g. with this information, the kexec_start_address has been found
+    it was wrong with 64bit kernel / o32 kexec-tools. Which must be
+    fixed later.
+  o Link relocate_kernel.S to a section for future extension
+    This allows more functions can be added for the kexec relocation
+    part even written in C. to add code into that section, you just need
+    to mark your function or data with __kexec or
+    __attribute__((__section__(".__kexec.relocate")))
+
+TODO:
+
+1. Make 64bit kernel / o32|n32|64 kexec-tools works
+
+Fix the user-space kexec-tools, seems the tool only work for 32bit
+machine. So, we need to add 64bit support for it. The address of the
+entry point(kexec_start_address) is wrong and make the "kexec -e" fail.
+the real entry point must be read from the new kernel image by the
+user-space kexec-tools, otherwise, it will not work.  The above 64bit
+support tested is 64bit kernel with o32 user-space kexec-tools. The root
+cause may be the different definition of virt_to_phys() and
+phys_to_virt() in the kexec-tools and kernel space for 64bit system /
+o32 kernel.
+
+Ref: http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2009-08/msg00149.html
+
+2. Pass the arguments from kexec-tools to the new kernel image
+
+Please refer to: "MIPS: Loongson: Kexec: Pass parameters to new kernel"

+Subject: MIPS: Get kernel parameters from kexec-tools
+
+Before, we simply use the command lines from the original bootloader,
+but it is not convenient. Now, we accept the kernel parameters from the
+--command-line or --append option of the kexec-tools.  But If not
+--command-line or --apend option indicated, will fall back to use the
+ones from the original bootloader.
