Philipp Rudo 3be3f61d25 kernel/kexec_file.c: allow archs to set purgatory load address
For s390 new kernels are loaded to fixed addresses in memory before they
are booted.  With the current code this is a problem as it assumes the
kernel will be loaded to an 'arbitrary' address.  In particular,
kexec_locate_mem_hole searches for a large enough memory region and sets
the load address (kexec_bufer->mem) to it.

Luckily there is a simple workaround for this problem.  By returning 1
in arch_kexec_walk_mem, kexec_locate_mem_hole is turned off.  This
allows the architecture to set kbuf->mem by hand.  While the trick works
fine for the kernel it does not for the purgatory as here the
architectures don't have access to its kexec_buffer.

Give architectures access to the purgatories kexec_buffer by changing
kexec_load_purgatory to take a pointer to it.  With this change
architectures have access to the buffer and can edit it as they need.

A nice side effect of this change is that we can get rid of the
purgatory_info->purgatory_load_address field.  As now the information
stored there can directly be accessed from kbuf->mem.
