powerpc/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec

Browse Source 
The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide
the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the
equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
config ARCH_SUPPORTS_KEXEC
def_bool PPC_BOOK3S || PPC_E500 || (44x && !SMP)
The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
initially work for you. As of this writing the exact hardware
interface is strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be
made.

This is a new version of the kexec system call. This call is
file based and takes in file descriptors as system call arguments
for kernel and initramfs as opposed to a list of segments as is the
case for the older kexec call.
