powerpc/crash: adjust the elfcorehdr size
With crash hotplug support enabled, additional memory is allocated to
the elfcorehdr kexec segment to accommodate resources added during
memory hotplug events. However, the kdump FDT is not updated with the
same size, which can result in elfcorehdr corruption in the kdump
kernel.
Update elf_headers_sz (the kimage member representing the size of the
elfcorehdr kexec segment) to reflect the total memory allocated for the
elfcorehdr segment instead of the elfcorehdr buffer size at the time of
kdump load. This allows of_kexec_alloc_and_setup_fdt() to reserve the
full elfcorehdr memory in the kdump FDT and prevents elfcorehdr
corruption.
