Thanks for your feedback. We are still working on kexec tools for PPC64. 
In the mean time, I was using a temporary tool which does not do ifdown. 
I was in the impression that the kexec boot will be successful since the 
normal kexec code path (kernel/sys.c) contains device_shutdown/reboot 
notifier. It turns out I am wrong.

Thanks
Haren
