[PATCH v19 6/6] powerpc/crash: add crash memory hotplug support

Extend the arch crash hotplug handler, as introduced by the patch title
("powerpc: add crash CPU hotplug support"), to also support memory
add/remove events.
Elfcorehdr describes the memory of the crash kernel to capture the
kernel; hence, it needs to be updated if memory resources change due to
memory add/remove events. Therefore, arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event()
is updated to recreate the elfcorehdr and replace it with the previous
one on memory add/remove events.
The memblock list is used to prepare the elfcorehdr. In the case of
memory hot remove, the memblock list is updated after the arch crash
hotplug handler is triggered, as depicted in Figure 1. Thus, the
hot-removed memory is explicitly removed from the crash memory ranges
to ensure that the memory ranges added to elfcorehdr do not include the
hot-removed memory.

Figure 1
There are two system calls, `kexec_file_load` and `kexec_load`, used to
load the kdump image. A few changes have been made to ensure that the
kernel can safely update the elfcorehdr component of the kdump image for
both system calls.
For the kexec_file_load syscall, kdump image is prepared in the kernel.
To support an increasing number of memory regions, the elfcorehdr is
built with extra buffer space to ensure that it can accommodate
additional memory ranges in future.
For the kexec_load syscall, the elfcorehdr is updated only if the
KEXEC_CRASH_HOTPLUG_SUPPORT kexec flag is passed to the kernel by the
kexec tool. Passing this flag to the kernel indicates that the
elfcorehdr is built to accommodate additional memory ranges and the
elfcorehdr segment is not considered for SHA calculation, making it safe
to update.
The changes related to this feature are kept under the CRASH_HOTPLUG
config, and it is enabled by default.
