One more question just for clarification.
I see kexec is only supported on 64bit kernel. But are we sure
we don't need to support kexec on EFI32 + 64bit kernel?
I don't have such an environment and as far as I tried with OVMF i386
and KVM guest, that combination doesn't work reliably even with v5.0.
So I suppose people don't care.
