For normal kexec we need to keep other CPUs going so they can finish
conversion cleanly and get us to the known state. Note that the conversion
is not atomic wrt preemption.

In crash scenario we do the best effort: detect if we race with conversion
and report. We cannot really wait for conversions to finish: we get into
crash path with IRQs disabled and in generally unknown state.
