[PATCH v4 4/7] crash_dump: reuse saved dm crypt keys for CPU/memory hot-plugging

When there is CPU/memory hot-plugging, the kdump kernel image and initrd
will be reloaded. The user space can write the "reuse" command to
/sys/kernel/crash_dm_crypt_key so the stored keys can be re-saved again.

Note currently only x86 (commit ea53ad9cf73b ("x86/crash: add x86 crash
hotplug support")) and ppc (WIP) supports the new infrastructure
(commit 247262756121 ("crash: add generic infrastructure for crash
hotplug support")). If the new infrastructure get extended to all arches,
this patch can be dropped.
