[RFC v1 4/8] crash hp: generic crash hotplug support infrastructure

[Eric DeVolder <eric.devolder@oracle.com>]

This patch introduces a generic crash hot plug/unplug handler for CPU
and memory changes. This crash_update_elfcorehdr() handler is invoked
upon CPU and memory changes.  This generic handler obtains the
appropriate lock, does some important house keeping and then
dispatches the hot plug/unplug event to the architecture specific
handler arch_update_crash_elfcorehdr(), and when that architecture
specific handler returns, the lock is released.

This patch modifies crash_core.c to implement a subsys_initcall()
function that installs handlers for hot plug/unplug events. If CPU
hotplug is enabled, then cpuhp_setup_state() is invoked to register a
handler for CPU changes. Similarly, if memory hotplug is enabled, then
register_memory_notifier() is invoked to install a handler for memory
changes. These handlers in turn invoke the common handler
crash_update_elfcorehdr().

On the CPU side, cpuhp_setup_state_nocalls() is invoked with parameter
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN. While this works, when a CPU is being unplugged,
the CPU still shows up in foreach_present_cpu() during the regeneration
of the elfcorehdr, thus the need to explicitly check and exclude the
soon-to-be offlined CPU in crash_prepare_elf64_headers().

On the memory side, each un/plugged memory block passes through the
handler. For example, if a 1GiB DIMM is hotplugged, that generate 8
memory events, one for each 128MiB memblock.
