[PATCH] kexec/ppc64: Switch to a static PACA on the way out

[Matt Evans <matt@ozlabs.org>]

With dynamic PACAs, the kexecing CPU's PACA won't lie within the kernel
static data and there is a chance that something may stomp it when preparing
to kexec.  This patch switches this final CPU to a static PACA just before
we pull the switch.
