Care to share how exactly is the logic changed? I do not see it. To me
it looks like we have separate flags for KEXEC_LOAD and KEXEC_FILE_LOAD
so setting up both does not change anything. Whatever syscall is used
it has the flags set up.

In the existing logic we decide which syscall to do beforehand and set
up only flags for that syscall but that does not save much CPU cycles
and makes the code more complex and fragile. 

Thanks

Michal
