Subject: kexec_file: fix elfcorehdr digest exclusion when CONFIG_CRASH_HOTPLUG=y
Date: Mon, 5 Aug 2024 17:07:50 +0200
Fix the condition to exclude the elfcorehdr segment from the SHA digest
calculation.
The j iterator is an index into the output sha_regions[] array, not into
the input image->segment[] array. Once it reaches
image->elfcorehdr_index, all subsequent segments are excluded. Besides,
if the purgatory segment precedes the elfcorehdr segment, the elfcorehdr
may be wrongly included in the calculation.
