Subject: [PATCH RFC] purgatory: fix up declarations

Add the missing declarations of basic purgatory functions and variables
used with kexec_purgatory_get_set_symbol() to allow a clean build.

Fixes: commit 8fc5b4d4121c ("purgatory: core purgatory functionality")
Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@...dl.org>

Numerous sparse messages regarding functions not being declared, these
functions are resolved via kexec_purgatory_get_set_symbol() and not
directly called anywhere. To resolve the sparse issues appropriate
declarations were added to asm/kexec-bzimage64.h and the appropriate
reference included in purgatory.c. Adding this to kexec-bzimage64.h
was done as setup_purgatory() from machine_kexec_file_64.c uses
these symbols - not sure if this is the proper place to add this.

While at it the initialization of sha_regions to {{0,0}} was added.

Patch was compile tested with: x86_64_defconfig (implies CONFIG_KEXEC=y)

Patch is against 4.9.0 (localversion-next is next-20161223)
