Re: [PATCH v17 02/10] of: Add a common kexec FDT setup function

From: Thiago Jung Bauermann <hidden>

There's actually a complication that I just noticed and needs to be
addressed. More below.

From: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>

Both arm64 and powerpc do essentially the same FDT /chosen setup for
kexec.  The differences are either omissions that arm64 should have
or additional properties that will be ignored.  The setup code can be
combined and shared by both powerpc and arm64.

The differences relative to the arm64 version:
 - If /chosen doesn't exist, it will be created (should never happen).
 - Any old dtb and initrd reserved memory will be released.
 - The new initrd and elfcorehdr are marked reserved.
 - "linux,booted-from-kexec" is set.

The differences relative to the powerpc version:
 - "kaslr-seed" and "rng-seed" may be set.
 - "linux,elfcorehdr" is set.
 - Any existing "linux,usable-memory-range" is removed.

Combine the code for setting up the /chosen node in the FDT and updating
the memory reservation for kexec, for powerpc and arm64, in
of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() and move it to "drivers/of/kexec.c".

Just adding 4 KB to initial_boot_params won't be enough for crash
kernels on ppc64. The current powerpc code doubles the size of
initial_boot_params (which is normally larger than 4 KB) and even that
isn't enough. A patch was added to powerpc/next today which uses a more
precise (but arch-specific) formula:

https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/161243826811.119001.14083048209224609814.stgit@hbathini/ (local)

So I believe we need a hook here where architectures can provide their
own specific calculation for the size of the fdt. Perhaps a weakly
defined function providing a default implementation which an
arch-specific file can override (a la arch_kexec_kernel_image_load())?

Then the powerpc specific hook would be the kexec_fdt_totalsize_ppc64()
function from the patch I linked above.
