[PATCH v5 01/11] kexec_file: allow archs to handle special regions while locating memory hole

Some architectures may have special memory regions, within the given
memory range, which can't be used for the buffer in a kexec segment.
Implement weak arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole() definition which arch code
may override, to take care of special regions, while trying to locate
a memory hole.
Also, add the missing declarations for arch overridable functions and
and drop the __weak descriptors in the declarations to avoid non-weak
definitions from becoming weak.

[lkp: In v1, arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() declaration was missing]

v4 -> v5:
* Unchanged.
v3 -> v4:
* Unchanged. Added Reviewed-by tag from Thiago.
v2 -> v3:
* Unchanged. Added Acked-by & Tested-by tags from Dave & Pingfan.
v1 -> v2:
* Introduced arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole() for override and dropped
weak arch_kexec_add_buffer().
* Dropped __weak identifier for arch overridable functions.
* Fixed the missing declaration for arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup()
