When loading a kernel for kexec, dynamically update the list of physical
ranges that are not to be used for storing preserved pages with the ranges
where kexec segments will be copied to on reboot. This ensures no pages
preserved after the new kernel has been loaded will reside in these ranges
on reboot.
Not yet handled is the case where pages have been preserved before a
kexec kernel is loaded. This will be covered by a later patch.
