arm64: kexec: pass kimage as the only argument to relocation function
Currently, kexec relocation function (arm64_relocate_new_kernel) accepts the following arguments: head: start of array that contains relocation information. entry: entry point for new kernel or purgatory. dtb_mem: first and only argument to entry. The number of arguments cannot be easily expended, because this function is also called from HVC_SOFT_RESTART, which preserves only three arguments. And, also arm64_relocate_new_kernel is written in assembly but called without stack, thus no place to move extra arguments to free registers. Soon, we will need to pass more arguments: once we enable MMU we will need to pass information about page tables. Pass kimage to arm64_relocate_new_kernel, and teach it to get the required fields from kimage.
