kexec_file: add kexec_file flag to control debug printing

Browse Source 
Patch series "kexec_file: print out debugging message if required", v4.

Currently, specifying '-d' on kexec command will print a lot of debugging
informationabout kexec/kdump loading with kexec_load interface.

However, kexec_file_load prints nothing even though '-d' is specified. 
It's very inconvenient to debug or analyze the kexec/kdump loading when
something wrong happened with kexec/kdump itself or develper want to check
the kexec/kdump loading.

In this patchset, a kexec_file flag is KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG added and checked
in code.  If it's passed in, debugging message of kexec_file code will be
printed out and can be seen from console and dmesg.  Otherwise, the
debugging message is printed like beofre when pr_debug() is taken.

Note:
****
=====
1) The code in kexec-tools utility also need be changed to support
passing KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kernel when 'kexec -s -d' is specified.

2) s390 also has kexec_file code, while I am not sure what debugging
information is necessary. So leave it to s390 developer.

Test:

Testing was done in v1 on x86_64 and arm64. For v4, tested on x86_64
again. And on x86_64, the printed messages look like below:

This patch (of 7):

When specifying 'kexec -c -d', kexec_load interface will print loading
information, e.g the regions where kernel/initrd/purgatory/cmdline are
put, the memmap passed to 2nd kernel taken as system RAM ranges, and
printing all contents of struct kexec_segment, etc.  These are very
helpful for analyzing or positioning what's happening when kexec/kdump
itself failed.  The debugging printing for kexec_load interface is made in
user space utility kexec-tools.

Whereas, with kexec_file_load interface, 'kexec -s -d' print nothing. 
Because kexec_file code is mostly implemented in kernel space, and the
debugging printing functionality is missed.  It's not convenient when
debugging kexec/kdump loading and jumping with kexec_file_load interface.

Now add KEXEC_FILE_DEBUG to kexec_file flag to control the debugging
message printing.  And add global variable kexec_file_dbg_print and macro
kexec_dprintk() to facilitate the printing.

This is a preparation, later kexec_dprintk() will be used to replace the
existing pr_debug().  Once 'kexec -s -d' is specified, it will print out
kexec/kdump loading information.  If '-d' is not specified, it regresses
to pr_debug().
