The basis for kexec are already on their way to mainline, as part of the hibernate series that James has put together. I'd expect someone to: 1) rebase the remaining kexec/kdump patches based on the current arm64/for-next/core, 2) post these patches when -rc1 gets cut in two weeks from now, 3) address the review comments in a timely manner, 4) update the series once a week so that we see some actual progress If this happens, I can't see any reason why this code wouldn't get merged. But keeping kexec and kdump together is not what has prevented the code from getting merged until now.
