Eric DeVolder f7cc804a9f kexec: exclude elfcorehdr from the segment digest
When a crash kernel is loaded via the kexec_file_load() syscall, the
kernel places the various segments (ie crash kernel, crash initrd,
boot_params, elfcorehdr, purgatory, etc) in memory.  For those
architectures that utilize purgatory, a hash digest of the segments is
calculated for integrity checking.  The digest is embedded into the
purgatory image prior to placing in memory.

Updates to the elfcorehdr in response to CPU and memory changes would
cause the purgatory integrity checking to fail (at crash time, and no
vmcore created).  Therefore, the elfcorehdr segment is explicitly excluded
from the purgatory digest, enabling updates to the elfcorehdr while also
avoiding the need to recompute the hash digest and reload purgatory.
