I have applied the following follow-up patch to resolves some errors.
Let me know if I messed it up.
From: Simon Horman <horms at verge.net.au>
[PATCH] kexec/xen: Correct some compile errors
Correct various problems introduced by
08cf823704b0fa3b ("kexec/xen: directly load images images into Xen").
These all relate to the case here HAVE_LIBXENCTRL is not set.
