[PATCH v14 18/20] arm64: kdump: add kdump support

From: AKASHI Takahiro <takahiro.akashi at linaro.org>
On crash dump kernel, all the information about primary kernel's system
memory (core image) is available in elf core header.
The primary kernel will set aside this header with reserve_elfcorehdr()
at boot time and inform crash dump kernel of its location via a new
device-tree property, "linux,elfcorehdr".
Please note that all other architectures use traditional "elfcorehdr="
kernel parameter for this purpose.
Then crash dump kernel will access the primary kernel's memory with
copy_oldmem_page(), which reads one page by ioremap'ing it since it does
not reside in linear mapping on crash dump kernel.
We also need our own elfcorehdr_read() here since the header is placed
within crash dump kernel's usable memory.
