Subject: [v1][PATCH 4/7] book3e/kexec/kdump: introduce a kexec kernel flag

We need to introduce a flag to indicate we're already running
a kexec kernel then we can go proper path. For example, We
shouldn't access spin_table from the bootloader to up any secondary
cpu for kexec kernel, and kexec kernel already know how to jump to
generic_secondary_smp_init.
