Hi All, This series adds the core support for kexec re-boot and kdump on ARM64. This version of the series combines Takahiro's kdump patches with my kexec patches. Changes since v11: o No changes, rebase to v4.4-rc2. Changes since v10: o Move the flush of the new image from arm64_relocate_new_kernel to machine_kexec. o Pass values to arm64_relocate_new_kernel in registers, not in global variables. o Fixups to setting the sctlr_el1 and sctlr_el2 flags. To load a second stage kernel and execute a kexec re-boot or to work with kdump on ARM64 systems a series of patches to kexec-tools [2], which have not yet been merged upstream, are needed. I have tested kexec with the ARM Foundation model, and Takahiro has reported that kdump is working on the 96boards HiKey developer board. Kexec on EFI systems works correctly. More ACPI + kexec testing is needed. Patch 1 here moves the macros from proc-macros.S to asm/assembler.h so that the dcache_line_size macro it defines can be uesd by kexec's relocate kernel routine. Patches 2 & 3 rework the ARM64 hcall mechanism to give the CPU reset routines the ability to switch exception levels from EL1 to EL2 for kernels that were entered in EL2. Patch 4 allows KVM to handle a CPU reset. Patches 5 - 7 add back the ARM64 CPU reset support that was recently removed from the kernel. Patches 8 - 10 add kexec support. Patches 11-16 add kdump support. Please consider all patches for inclusion.
