I go through this patchset, You mention the benefits it brings are
1) simplity the code;
2) increase compile coverage;

For benefit 1), it mainly removes the dummy function in x86, arm and
arm64, right?

For benefit 2), increasing compile coverage, could you tell more how it
achieves and why it matters? What if people disables CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE in
purpose? Please forgive my poor compiling knowledge.

Thanks
