_machine removal breaks kexec?

Hi,

It looks like the _machine removal broke kexec:

 # kexec -l vmlinux
 /proc/device-tree/chosen/linux,platform: No such file or directory

The kexec tools seem to want the linux,platform property:

        /* if LPAR, no need to read any more from /chosen */
        if (platform != PLATFORM_PSERIES) {
                closedir(cdir);
                continue;
        }

Anton
