I have only one HP machine for testing, Maybe Toshi can help to verify
on other machines. Just comment out the function efi_reuse_config to see
if kexec kernel panic.

That's reserved for future extension use, who knows if we will need
to pass other fields in the future.

Ok. I'm not very satisfied with the function name, any better
suggestion?
reuse_config
use_old_config_phys_addr
update_config_entry_with_phys_addr

Since Matt suggest to extend the function for other possible field
other than smbios, so I would like to move comment to the front
of the function like below:
/*
* For kexec kernel there's some special config table entries which will be
* converted to virtual addresses after entering virtual mode. In kexec kernel
* we need the physical addresses instead, thus passing them via setup_data
* and update the entries to physical addresses in this function.
*
* Currently only handles smbios which is necessary for HP z420.

Is there any idea in your mind how to add the code for HP only?

Yes, __map_region return an error code will be better. Will you send a
patch for __map_region? or I can add one more patch along with next version.
