Hi List,

Changes to v2:
 - use git format-patch -C

Changes to v1:
 - split up patch into smaller pieces

 - remove unused variable in kexec_elf_load()

Changes to RFC version:
 - remove unused Elf_Rel macro
 - remove section header parsing
 - remove PURGATORY_STACK_SIZE
 - change order of elf_*_to_cpu() functions
 - remove elf_addr_to_cpu macro
