Indeed, will fix if need report. Thanks for careful checking.

The purpose has been detailedly described in cover letter and patch 1
log. Andrew has picked these patches into his tree and grabbed the cover
letter log into the relevant commit for people's later checking. All
these seven patches will be present in mainline together. This is common
way when posting patch series? Please let me know if I misunderstand
anything.

You are right. 

While always printing out the loaded location of purgatory and
device tree doesn't make sense. It will be confusing when users
see these even when they do normal kexec/kdump loading. It should be
changed to pr_debug().

Which way do you suggest?
1) change it back to pr_debug(), fix it in another patch;
2) keep it as is in the patch;

Thanks
