kexec tools gcc 4.1.0 issue

[Mohan Kumar M]

Hi,

Latest kexec tools for PPC64 with purgatory patch
(ppc64-kdump-purgatory-backup-support.patch) was not working with gcc
version 4.1.0 due to the change in object file generation.

Here is the patch to fix this issue.

This patch is created on top of the following level of
kexec-tools:

- kexec-tools-1.101.tar.gz (from eric biederman's site or 
from lse site)
- kexec-tools-1.101-kdump6.patch (consolidated patch posted
on
http://lse.sourceforge.net/kdump/patches/1.101-kdump6/kexec-tools-1.101-kdump6.patch)

Review and suggestions are welcome.

Note:
Resending the patch since its not delivered to both fastboot and
linuxppc64-dev mailing list.

Regards,
Mohan.
