Vivek Goyal 57cac4d188 kdump: make elfcorehdr_addr independent of CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
o elfcorehdr_addr is used by not only the code under CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE
  but also by the code which is not inside CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.  For
  example, is_kdump_kernel() is used by powerpc code to determine if
  kernel is booting after a panic then use previous kernel's TCE table.
  So even if CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE is not set in second kernel, one should be
  able to correctly determine that we are booting after a panic and setup
  calgary iommu accordingly.

o So remove the assumption that elfcorehdr_addr is under
  CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE.

o Move definition of elfcorehdr_addr to arch dependent crash files.
  (Unfortunately crash dump does not have an arch independent file
  otherwise that would have been the best place).

o kexec.c is not the right place as one can Have CRASH_DUMP enabled in
  second kernel without KEXEC being enabled.

o I don't see sh setup code parsing the command line for
  elfcorehdr_addr.  I am wondering how does vmcore interface work on sh.
  Anyway, I am atleast defining elfcoredhr_addr so that compilation is not
  broken on sh.
