Recently we faced an issue on power7 machine where kernel hanged in purgatory.
Some investigation revealed that gcc is generating hardware FPU instructions.
I have been told we can't use it at this point of time and as kernel is
compiled with -msoft-float for ppc/ppc64, so should be purgatory (as it runs
inside kernel context).
Thanks to Jakub Jelinek and Lingzhu Xiang for debugging and coming up with
a fix for this issue.

Disable backup regions for BookE in case of a CRASH Dump, as they can
be run from anywhere.
The patch introduces --with-booke option to support the BookE.
With the patch, we get :
## On a 256M machine:
# busybox cat /proc/cmdline
init=/bin/init console=ttyS0,16550 crashkernel=128M@100M
# kexec -p root/vmlinux
usable memory rgns size:1 base:6400000 size:8000000
CRASH MEMORY RANGES
0000000000000000-0000000006400000
000000000e400000-0000000010000000
Command line after adding elfcorehdr: elfcorehdr=112380K

PPC32 ELF ABI expects r2 to be loaded with Thread Pointer, which is 0x7000
bytes past the end of TCB. Though the purgatory is single threaded, it uses
TCB scratch space in vsnprintf(). This patch allocates a 1024byte TCB
and populates the TP with the address accordingly.
Changes from V2: Avoid address overflow in TP allocation.
Changes from V1: Fixed the addr calculation for uImage support.

crt.S patch had fixes for gcc -Os (optimaze for size), same as
kernel has. Without this fixes powerpc gcc 4.4 generates forever
loop functions for kexec.
This happends because crtsavres code was spit up to individual files
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-03/msg01294.html) and
kexec purgatory code has following options:
--no-undefined -nostartfiles -nostdlib -nodefaultlibs
So in that case crtasaveregs function are not defined and final object
file has been linked without them. This does not happen with applications
built without -nostdlib, because gcc will add it's standard functions.

Linker does not provide some vital functions when building freestanding
applications with a new toolchain, so we have to provide our own CRT.
p.s.
Without the CRT we won't see any build errors (since the purgatory is
linked with --no-undefined), but the purgatory code won't work,
'kexec -e' will just hang the board.
I added option to configure to keep code buildable for old toolchais.
But there should be way to do this automatically.

Some code dtb scanning & filling has been borrowed from ppc64.
The old behavior is still available if compiled with GameCube,
other PowerPC platform use the can purgatory and specify a new
dtb.
Booting a self contained elf image (incl. dtb / without the need
for a bd sturct or the like) can be booted. The dtb support is currently
optional. That means if the elf image does not contain a dtb file then
the user has to supply a complete dtb (including mem size, command line,
bus freq., mac addr, ...)

With the recent build changes a number of unneded files
crept into tarballs, including .o and .d files.
This patch is farily verbose, but hopefully in the long
run this system will be obvious enough to be maintainable.

Purgatory seems to partially duplicate system headers.
It seems a log cleaner not to do so.

o This patch adds support for reserving space for backup region. Also adds code
in purgatory to copy the first 640K to backup region.
o Moved kexec_flags inside kexec_info structure.
