[PATCH v23 5/9] arm64: kdump: add kdump support

On crash dump kernel, all the information about primary kernel's system
memory (core image) is available in elf core header.
The primary kernel will set aside this header with reserve_elfcorehdr()
at boot time and inform crash dump kernel of its location via a new
device-tree property, "linux,elfcorehdr".
Please note that all other architectures use traditional "elfcorehdr="
kernel parameter for this purpose.
Then crash dump kernel will access the primary kernel's memory with
copy_oldmem_page(), which reads one page by ioremap'ing it since it does
not reside in linear mapping on crash dump kernel.
We also need our own elfcorehdr_read() here since the header is placed
within crash dump kernel's usable memory.
