I seem to remember the consensus when this was reviewed that it was unnecessary and there is already support for doing something like this at a more fine grained level so we don't need a new kexec hook.
It was a discussion, no consenus :) I still think it is better to solve this in generic code for everybody to re-use than with an hack in the architecture hooks. More and more platforms which enable confidential computing features may need this hook in the future.
