[PATCH] powerpc/kexec_file: Fix division by zero in extra size estimation

In kexec_extra_fdt_size_ppc64() there's logic to estimate how much
extra space will be needed in the device tree for some memory related
properties.

That logic uses the size of RAM divided by drmem_lmb_size() to do the
estimation. However drmem_lmb_size() can be zero if the machine has no
hotpluggable memory configured, which is the case when booting with qemu
and no maxmem=x parameter is passed (the default).

The division by zero is reported by UBSAN, and can also lead to an
overflow and a warning from kvmalloc, and kdump kernel loading fails:

To fix it, skip the calculation if drmem_lmb_size() is zero.
