Thanks for this reminding!
Then how about add flush_icache_range at the end of machine_kexec_prepare?
Could it be acceptable?

I think it should be done.

Also with this change, do we still need flush icache at the end stage of
machine_kexec?

You need to use flush_icache_range() whenever you write _instructions_
to an area of memory which you intend to execute.  If you're not writing
instructions, you shouldn't use flush_icache_range().
