[PATCH V3] kexec: Use file name as the output message prefix

kexec output message misses the prefix "kexec", when Dave Young split
the kexec code. Now, we use file name as the output message prefix.

Currently, the format of output message:
[  140.290795] SYSC_kexec_load: hello, world
[  140.291534] kexec: sanity_check_segment_list: hello, world

Ideally, the format of output message:
[   30.791503] kexec: SYSC_kexec_load, Hello, world
[   79.182752] kexec_core: sanity_check_segment_list, Hello, world

Remove the custom prefix "kexec" in output message.

v3:
- Move the macro to the top of the c file
v2:
- Use KBUILD_MODNAME as prefix, instead of custom string "kexec"
