This change introduces two new functions un/map_crash_pages()
which are used to enable/disable access to the segments in the
crash memory region. (Upon loading of a crash kernel, the
crash memory regions are made inaccessible for integrity purposes.)

For example, on x86_64, one of the segments is the elfcorehdr,
which contains the list of CPUs and memories. This segment
needs to be modified in response to hotplug events. These functions
are used to obtain (and subsequenntly release) access to the crash
memory region in order to make the modifications.

QUESTION: These might need to be in arch/x86 as I'm not certain
the implementatin is valid for all archs?

Since only x86_64 uses them, I would suggest putting them into x86_64,
near the caller.

I've moved these to arch/x86/kernel/crash.c within the #ifdef CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG.
