[PATCH v4] powerpc/kexec_file: use current CPU info while setting up FDT

kexec_file_load uses initial_boot_params in setting up the device-tree
for the kernel to be loaded. Though initial_boot_params holds info
about CPUs at the time of boot, it doesn't account for hot added CPUs.

So, kexec'ing with kexec_file_load syscall would leave the kexec'ed
kernel with inaccurate CPU info. Also, if kdump kernel is loaded with
kexec_file_load syscall and the system crashes on a hot added CPU,
capture kernel hangs failing to identify the boot CPU.

 Kernel panic - not syncing: sysrq triggered crash
 CPU: 24 PID: 6065 Comm: echo Kdump: loaded Not tainted 5.12.0-rc5upstream #54

To avoid this from happening, extract current CPU info from of_root
device node and use it for setting up the fdt in kexec_file_load case.
