I have same concern as I commented in last versioni, but seems
we can not convince each other with Michal.
For example for -EINVAL/-ENOEXEC, since it can be some misc
error checking in kernel code, it is not equal to an unsupported
syscall. I'm not keen to think broken kernel file (include the case for
unsupported kernel format, but not limit to that) is equal as an
unsupported syscall
Also seems the new options are not showing in `kexec -h` although
added in the man page.
So I think I will leave to you and do not object it if you are fine.
