From: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz>
Subject: [PATCH] kexec: dont use kexec_file_load on XEN
Patch-mainline: 94fbe64fb22d61726ca0c0996987574b6c783c19
References: bsc#1218590
Since commit 29fe5067ed07 ("kexec: make -a the default")
kexec tries the kexec_file_load syscall first and only falls back to kexec_load on
selected error codes.
This effectively breaks kexec on XEN, unless -c is pecified to force the kexec_load
syscall.
The XEN-specific functions (xen_kexec_load / xen_kexec_unload) are only called
from my_load / k_unload, i.e. the kexec_load code path.
With -p (panic kernel) kexec_file_load on XEN fails with -EADDRNOTAVAIL (crash
kernel reservation is ignored by the kernel on XEN), which is not in the list
of return codes that cause the fallback to kexec_file.
Without -p kexec_file_load actualy leads to a kernel oops on v6.4.0
(needs to be dubugged separately).
