Splitting the common code patches from the series is totally fine with me.
On Friday I managed to get my code working with AKASHI's patches. After setting
ARCH_HAS_PURGATORY and cleaning up the kexec_* functions it worked basically out
of the box. However there is one problem with older compilers on s390. Please
see my comment on patch #3 for details.
Thanks
