[PATCH v2 0/5] Kdump support for PPC440x

[Suzuki K. Poulose]

The following series implements:

 * Generic framework for relocatable kernel on PPC32, based on processing 
   the dynamic relocation entries.
 * Relocatable kernel support for 44x
 * Kdump support for 44x. Doesn't support 47x yet, as the kexec 
   support is missing.

Changes from V1:

  * Splitted patch 'Enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for PPC44x' to move some
    of the generic bits to a new patch.
  * Renamed RELOCATABLE_PPC32 to RELOCATABLE_PPC32_PIE and provided options to
    retained old style mapping. (Suggested by: Scott Wood)
  * Added support for avoiding the overlapping of uncompressed kernel
    with boot wrapper for PPC images.

The patches are based on -next tree for ppc.

I have tested these patches on Ebony, Sequoia and Virtex(QEMU Emulated).
I haven't tested the RELOCATABLE bits on PPC_47x yet, as I don't have access
to one. However, it should work fine there as we only depend on the runtime
address and the XLAT entry setup by the boot loader. It would be great if
somebody could test these patches on a 47x.
