Hmm.  You can enable print statements in purgatory.c.  There is a
command line switch that allows pugatory to print to a serial console.
That should be a simple easy thing to try.

I am totally lost as to the status of the patches to make all of this
work right.  But the change to let purgator work above 4G was merged
early so hopefully it is not a problem in kexec.

You might also want to enable early printk in the crash dump kernel.
Sometimes kernels get confused on the way up and we hang there.
