[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/fsl_booke: enable the relocatable for the kdump kernel

For a relocatable kdump kernel, we may create a tlb map which is
beyond the real memory allocated to the kdump kernel. For example,
when the boot kernel reserve 32M memory for the kdump kernel by
using 'crashkernel=32M at 64M', we will have to create a 256M tlb
entry in the kdump kernel. So define PPC_PIN_SIZE for fsl ppc32 bit,
this will make sure that we still get the right VMALLOC_START in
this case.

Build a kernel suitable for use as a kdump capture kernel.
The same kernel binary can be used as production kernel and dump
