Sourabh Jain 40c753993e powerpc/kexec_file: Use current CPU info while setting up FDT 
kexec_file_load() uses initial_boot_params in setting up the device tree
for the kernel to be loaded. Though initial_boot_params holds info about
CPUs at the time of boot, it doesn't account for hot added CPUs.

So, kexec'ing with kexec_file_load() syscall leaves the kexec'ed kernel
with inaccurate CPU info.

If kdump kernel is loaded with kexec_file_load() syscall and the system
crashes on a hot added CPU, the capture kernel hangs failing to identify
the boot CPU, with no output.

To avoid this from happening, extract current CPU info from of_root
device node and use it for setting up the fdt in kexec_file_load case.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
