For 32-bit ARM systems with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y, when kexec utility
loads the crash kernel. 32-bit elf header is not enough if the
physical address exceeds 4G.
This patch checkes whether the largest physical address of the system
exceeds 4G. If so, kexec creates 64-bit elf header.Otherwise it
creates 32-bit elf header.
