[PATCH v2 2/2] kexec: extend kexec_file_load system call

Here is a new version implementing your suggestions.
I also changed it to kmalloc fdset instead of using the stack.
What do you think?
From: AKASHI Takahiro <takahiro.akashi at linaro.org>
Device tree blob must be passed to a second kernel on DTB-capable
archs, like powerpc and arm64, but the current kernel interface
lacks this support.
This patch extends kexec_file_load system call by adding an extra
argument to this syscall so that an arbitrary number of file descriptors
can be handed out from user space to the kernel.
long sys_kexec_file_load(int kernel_fd, int initrd_fd,
unsigned long cmdline_len,
const char __user *cmdline_ptr,
unsigned long flags,
const struct kexec_fdset __user *ufdset);
If KEXEC_FILE_EXTRA_FDS is set to the "flags" argument, the "ufdset"
argument points to the following struct buffer:
struct kexec_fdset {
int nr_fds;
struct kexec_file_fd fds[0];
}
