[PATCH v2 01/12] kexec: Allow architecture code to opt-out at runtime

2021-09-13 Thread Joerg Roedel
From: Joerg Roedel Allow a runtime opt-out of kexec support for architecture code in case the kernel is running in an environment where kexec is not properly supported yet. This will be used on x86 when the kernel is running as an SEV-ES guest. SEV-ES guests need special handling for kexec to
