[PATCH v12 10/17] arm64: kexec: pass kimage as the only argument to relocation function

Currently, kexec relocation function (arm64_relocate_new_kernel) accepts
the following arguments:
head: start of array that contains relocation information.
entry: entry point for new kernel or purgatory.
dtb_mem: first and only argument to entry.
The number of arguments cannot be easily expended, because this
function is also called from HVC_SOFT_RESTART, which preserves only
three arguments. And, also arm64_relocate_new_kernel is written in
assembly but called without stack, thus no place to move extra arguments
to free registers.
Soon, we will need to pass more arguments: once we enable MMU we
will need to pass information about page tables.
Pass kimage to arm64_relocate_new_kernel, and teach it to get the
required fields from kimage.
