Update for the "kmem -n" option to also dump memory block.
Currently, "kmem -n" shows the memory section only. This
patch gets available the memory block as well if 'memory_block'
structure and 'memory_subsys' symbol exist.
The memory block information is useful to
Add PPC64 specific flag for kernels running on platforms based on
OPAL firmware. Use this flag before processing commands specific to
OPAL based systems.

On OPAL based systems, when a thread is running an OPAL API, the stack
pointer and instruction pointer would be pointing at OPAL address but
'bt' output for such thread would complain that the stack pointer is
invalid. Update error/log message for better context.

Implemented support for 16k stack size that was introduced by commit
6538b8ea886e472f4431db8ca1d60478f838d14b titled "x86_64: expand kernel
stack to 16K".
Without the patch, kernels has 16k stack, leading to errors in commands
such as "bt" and any command regarding 8K stack.
Add a new "--machdep
