[PATCH v7 6/8] kexec: exclude hot remove cpu from elfcorehdr notes

Due to use of CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN, upon CPU unplug, the CPU is
still in the for_each_present_cpu() list when within the
crash_hotplug_handler(). Thus the CPU must be explicitly excluded
when building the new list of CPUs.
This change identifies in crash_hotplug_handler() the CPU to be
excluded, and the check for excluding the CPU in
crash_prepare_elf64_headers().
