PPC64 kernel now supports kexec_file_load system call. Leverage it by
enabling that support here. Note that loading crash kernel with this
system call is not yet supported in the kernel and trying to load one
will fail with '-ENOTSUPP' error.

Thanks for implementing this! Looks good to me, just one nit below.
Regardless of that:

This is placing executable code between variable declarations. It may be
fine for gcc but it's more idiomatic C to put it after all variable
declarations. But perhaps the kexec-tools style is fine with it?
I'd rather we avoid proliferating this style in the kexec code.
Hari, could you respin this patch?


Posted v2 with the necessary change...

Thanks
Hari
