Problem description:
Under loongson platform,use command:
kexec -l vmlinux... --append="root=UUID=28e1..." --initrd=...
kexec -e
quick restart failed.
The reason of this problem:
The kernel cannot parse the UUID,UUID is parsed in the initrd.
Loongson platform obtain the initrd through cmdline in kernel.
In kexec-tools, initrd is not added to cmdline.
The solution:
Add initrd parameter to cmdline. and add a CONFIG_LOONGSON configuration
to distinguish PAGE_OFFSET between different platforms under mips.
