Impact: fix missing CPUs in /proc/cpuinfo after CPU hotunplug/hotreplug
In my test, I found that if a cpu has been offline,
the next cpus may not be shown in the /proc/cpuinfo.
if one read() cannot consume the whole /proc/cpuinfo,
c_start() will be called again in the next read() calls.
And *pos has been increased by 1 by the caller(seq_read()).
if this time the cpu#*pos is offline, c_start() will return
NULL, and the next cpus can not be shown.
this fix use next_cpu_nr(*pos - 1, cpu_online_map) to
search the next unshown cpu.
the most easy way to reproduce this bug:
1) offline cpu#1 (cpu#0 is online)
2) dd ibs=2 if=/proc/cpuinfo
the result is that only cpu#0 is shown.
cpu#2 and cpu#3 .... cannot be shown in /proc/cpuinfo

There's a corner case in 32 bit x86 kdump at the moment. When the box
panics via nmi, we call bust_spinlocks(1) to disable sensitivity to the
console_sem (allowing us to print to the console in all cases), but we don't
call crash_kexec, until after we call bust_spinlocks(0), which re-enables
console_sem sensitivity.
The result is that, if we get an nmi while the console_sem is held and
kdump is configured, and we try to print something to the console during
kdump shutdown (which we often do) we deadlock the box. The fix is to
simply do what 64 bit die_nmi does which is to not call bust_spinlocks(0)
until after we call crash_kexec.

This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.
The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and
kdump kernel.
This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid
GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.

To keep the size of changesets sane we split the switch by drivers;
to keep the damn thing bisectable we do the following:
1) rename the affected methods, add ones with correct
prototypes, make (few) callers handle both. That's this changeset.
2) for each driver convert to new methods. *ALL* drivers
are converted in this series.
3) kill the old (renamed) methods.
Note that it _is_ a flagday; all in-tree drivers are converted and by the
end of this series no trace of old methods remain. The only reason why
we do that this way is to keep the damn thing bisectable and allow per-driver
debugging if anything goes wrong.
New methods:
open(bdev, mode)
release(disk, mode)

on old 32-bit CHRP machines. This therefore adds a -r flag to addnote
to allow us to specify what real-base value it should put in the CHRP
note, and adjusts the wrapper script to pass -r c00000 to addnote when
making a zImage for a CHRP machine. Also, CHRP machines ignore the
RPA note, so we don't need to arrange for it to be the same as the

64 bit powerpc requires the kexec user space tools avoid overwriting
the static kernel image and translation hash table when choosing
where to put memory image data because it copies the data into place
using the kernels virtual memory system. Kexec userspace determines
these and other areas blocked by reading properties the kernel adds,
but does not filter these properties when creating the device tree
for the next kernel.
When the second kernel tries to add its values for these properties,
the export via /proc/device-tree is hidden by the pre-existing but
stale values from the flat tree. Kexec userspace reads the old
property, allocates the new kernel at the old kernel's end, and
gets rejected by the overlap check.

There are two issues when we enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. The first is due
to the fact that phys_addr_t is now defined in linux/types.h. The second
is due to the fact that the DMA code changes expose memstart_addr to
prom_init.c

I noticed, when trying to use, e.g.,
node = find_node_by_prop_value(prev, "booleanprop", "", 0))
to search for all nodes with a certain boolean property, that memcmp()
returns garbage when comparing zero bytes. It should return zero.

Adjust amount to reserve based on previous nodes for reserves spanning
multiple nodes. Check if the node active range is empty before attempting
to pass the reserve to bootmem. In practice the range shouldn't be empty,
but to be sure we check.
