Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] arm64: kexec_file: add kdump

This is the last piece of my kexec_file_load implementation for arm64.
It is now ready for being merged as some relevant patch to dtc/libfdt[1]
has finally been integrated in v5.3-rc1.
(Nothing changed since kexec_file v16[2] except adding Patch#1 and #2.)

Patch#1 and #2 are preliminary patches for libfdt component.
Patch#3 is to add kdump support.

Bhepesh's patch[3] will be required for 52-bit VA support.
Once this patch is applied, whether or not CONFIG_ARM64_VA_BITS_52 is
enabled or not, a matching fix on user space side, crash utility,
will also be needed.

Anyway, I tested my patch, at least, with the following configuration:
1) CONFIG_ARM64_BITS_48=y
2) CONFIG_ARM64_BITS_52=y, but vabits_actual=48

(I don't have any platform to use for
3) CONFIG_ARM64_BITS_52=y, and vabits_actual=52)

v1.5.0-23-g87963ee20693"), in particular

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] libfdt: include fdt_addresses.c

In the implementation of kexec_file_loaded-based kdump for arm64,
fdt_appendprop_addrrange() will be needed.

So include fdt_addresses.c in making libfdt.

This looks like a step in the right direction. I have some minor
nitpicks which I have mentioned in the individual patch reviews.

With those addressed (v2?):
