Subject: kexec: move locking into do_kexec_load

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

commit 4b692e861619353ce069e547a67c8d0e32d9ef3d upstream.

Patch series "compat: remove compat_alloc_user_space", v5.

Going through compat_alloc_user_space() to convert indirect system call
arguments tends to add complexity compared to handling the native and
compat logic in the same code.

This patch (of 6):

The locking is the same between the native and compat version of
sys_kexec_load(), so it can be done in the common implementation to reduce
duplication.
