sh/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec
The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
|
||||
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
|
||||
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
|
||||
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.

It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine

is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
|

initially work for you. As of this writing the exact hardware

interface is strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be

made.

Generate crash dump after being started by kexec.
|
||||
This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
|
||||
which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
|
||||
a specially reserved region and then later executed after
|
||||
a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
|
||||
to a memory address not used by the main kernel using
|
||||
PHYSICAL_START.
