Hi Bjorn,
in recent patches AKASHI [1] and I [2] made some changes to the declarations

should prepare for some merge conflicts. Nevertheless
"Weak" annotations in header files are error-prone because they make
every definition weak. Remove them from include/linux/kexec.h.
These were introduced in two separate commits, so this is in two
patches so they can be easily backported to stable kernels (some of
them date back to v4.3 and one
