Change this function from static to global so that arm64 can implement
its own arch_kimage_file_post_load_cleanup() later using
kexec_image_post_load_cleanup_default().
Do we need to call kexec_image_post_load_cleanup_default()? All it does is call
the image-type fops->cleanup(), which you don't implement in this series.

Is this just-in-case someone adds cleanup() later and is surprised only the
arch-level helper is called?
Yes, we want not to miss two possibilities:
- some common clean-up code is added to kexec_image_post_load_cleanup_default()
- some format(i.e. Image)-specific clean-up code is added to fops->cleanup()
