[PATCH 00/15] arm64 kexec kernel patches v11

Hi All,
This series adds the core support for kexec re-boot and kdump on ARM64. This
version of the series combines Takahiro's kdump patches with my kexec patches.
To load a second stage kernel and execute a kexec re-boot or to work with kdump
on ARM64 systems a series of patches to kexec-tools [2], which have not yet been
merged upstream, are needed.
I have tested kexec with the ARM Foundation model, and Takahiro has reported
that kdump is working on the 96boards HiKey developer board. Kexec on EFI
systems works correctly. More ACPI + kexec testing is needed.
Patch 1 here moves the macros from proc-macros.S to asm/assembler.h so that the
dcache_line_size macro it defines can be uesd by kexec's relocate kernel
routine.
Patches 2 & 3 rework the ARM64 hcall mechanism to give the CPU reset routines
the ability to switch exception levels from EL1 to EL2 for kernels that were
entered in EL2.
Patch 4 allows KVM to handle a CPU reset.
Patches 5 & 6 add back the ARM64 CPU reset support that was recently removed
from the kernel.
Patches 7 - 9 add kexec support.
Patches 10-15 add kdump support.
Please consider all patches for inclusion.
Changes since v10:
o Move the flush of the new image from arm64_relocate_new_kernel to machine_kexec.
o Pass values to arm64_relocate_new_kernel in registers, not in global variables.
o Fixups to setting the sctlr_el1 and sctlr_el2 flags.
