[Resend PATCH v4 2/9] kexec: generalize and rename get_kernel_stext_sym()

get_kernel_stext_sym() has been defined for both arm and i386. Other
architecture might need some other kernel symbol address. Therefore rewrite
this function as generic function to get any kernel symbol address.

More over, kallsyms is not arch specific representation, therefore have
common function for all arches.
