[PATCH v5 0/7] kexec: add generic support for elf kernel images

[Helge Deller]

Hi all,

This kexec patch series is the groundwork for kexec on the parisc architecture.
Since we want kexec on parisc, I've applied it to my for-next-kexec tree [1],
and can push it to Linus in the next merge window through the parisc tree [2].

If someone has any objections, or if you prefer to take it through
a kexec or powerpc tree, please let me know.

Helge
