Re: [PATCH v3 2/5] RISC-V: Add kexec support

This patch adds support for kexec on RISC-V. On SMP systems it depends
on HOTPLUG_CPU in order to be able to bring up all harts after kexec.
It also needs a recent OpenSBI version that supports the HSM extension.
I tested it on riscv64 QEMU on both an smp and a non-smp system.

v5:
* For now depend on MMU, further changes needed for NOMMU support
* Make sure stvec is aligned
* Cleanup some unneeded fences
* Verify control code's buffer size
* Compile kexec_relocate.S with medany and norelax

v4:
* No functional changes, just re-based

v3:
* Use the new smp_shutdown_nonboot_cpus() call.
* Move riscv_kexec_relocate to .rodata

v2:
* Pass needed parameters as arguments to riscv_kexec_relocate
instead of using global variables.
* Use kimage_arch to hold the fdt address of the included fdt.
* Use SYM_* macros on kexec_relocate.S.
* Compatibility with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX.
* Compatibility with HOTPLUG_CPU for SMP
* Small cleanups

If you put these below a "---" then I don't have to manually remove them, but the best thing to do is to include the changelog as part of the cover letter when you have one as it's pretty tough to track changelogs on single patches.

+ kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your

+ but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot

+
+ The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
