crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug support
To support crash hotplug, a mechanism is needed to update the crash
elfcorehdr upon CPU or memory changes (eg. hot un/plug or off/ onlining).
The crash elfcorehdr describes the CPUs and memory to be written into the
vmcore.
To track CPU changes, callbacks are registered with the cpuhp mechanism
via cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls(CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN). The crash hotplug
elfcorehdr update has no explicit ordering requirement (relative to other
cpuhp states), so meets the criteria for utilizing CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN.
CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is a dynamic state and avoids the need to introduce a
new state for crash hotplug. Also, CPUHP_BP_PREPARE_DYN is the last state
in the PREPARE group, just prior to the STARTING group, which is very
close to the CPU starting up in a plug/online situation, or stopping in a
unplug/ offline situation. This minimizes the window of time during an
actual plug/online or unplug/offline situation in which the elfcorehdr
would be inaccurate. Note that for a CPU being unplugged or offlined, the
CPU will still be present in the list of CPUs generated by
crash_prepare_elf64_headers(). However, there is no need to explicitly
omit the CPU, see justification in 'crash: change
crash_prepare_elf64_headers() to for_each_possible_cpu()'.
To track memory changes, a notifier is registered to capture the memblock
MEM_ONLINE and MEM_OFFLINE events via register_memory_notifier().
The CPU callbacks and memory notifiers invoke crash_handle_hotplug_event()
which performs needed tasks and then dispatches the event to the
architecture specific arch_crash_handle_hotplug_event() to update the
elfcorehdr with the current state of CPUs and memory. During the process,
the kexec_lock is held.
