May be you should mention that the index of FDT segment is recorded to not
fetch it at each hotplug operation.

It might be good to explain here why CPU hot remove operations are ignored.

Why?
I think your comment should explain why CPU hot-unplug operations are ignored?

I think this is easier to read.

Are these 2 KVM specifics headers really required?

This indentation style looks weird to me.

You could return 0 here, and remove the initialization of cpu_node_size.

This shortens a bit that line.

Why do you keep the previous assignment of kbuf.memsz few lines ago :
kbuf.buffer = fdt;
kbuf.bufsz = kbuf.memsz = fdt_totalsize(fdt); <<<<<
kbuf.buf_align = PAGE_SIZE;
kbuf.top_down = true;
kbuf.mem = KEXEC_BUF_MEM_UNKNOWN;
#if defined(CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU)
if (image->type == KEXEC_TYPE_CRASH) {
kbuf.memsz = get_crash_fdt_mem_sz(fdt);
fdt_set_totalsize(fdt, kbuf.memsz);
image->arch.fdt_index = image->nr_segments;
} else
#endif
{
kbuf.memsz = fdt_totalsize(fdt);
}
And what about kbuf.bufsz?

Why not setting image->arch.fdt_index to -1 here?

Why doing this here instead of elf64_load()?
I think your patch only applies to the ELF image format, isn't it?
