Subject: [PATCH v16 5/7] kexec: exclude hot remove cpu from elfcorehdr notes

Due to use of CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN, upon CPU unplug, the CPU is
still in the for_each_present_cpu() list when within the
handle_hotplug_event(). Thus the CPU must be explicitly excluded
when building the new list of CPUs.

This change identifies in handle_hotplug_event() the CPU to be
excluded, and the check for excluding the CPU in
crash_prepare_elf64_headers().
