[PATCH] kexec: ppc64: print help to stdout instead of stderr

[Aditya Gupta <adityag@linux.ibm.com>]

Currently 'kexec --help' on powerpc64 prints the generic help/usage to
stdout, and the powerpc64 specific options to stderr

That is, if the stdout of 'kexec --help' is redirected to some file,
some of the help options will not be redirected, and instead printed on
the terminal/stderr:

    [root@machine kexec-tools]# kexec --help > /tmp/out
         --command-line=<Command line> command line to append.
         --append=<Command line> same as --command-line.
         --ramdisk=<filename> Initial RAM disk.
         --initrd=<filename> same as --ramdisk.
         --devicetreeblob=<filename> Specify device tree blob file.
                                     Not applicable while using
    --kexec-file-syscall.
         --dtb=<filename> same as --devicetreeblob.
    elf support is still broken
         --elf64-core-headers Prepare core headers in ELF64 format
         --dt-no-old-root Do not reuse old kernel root= param.
                          while creating flatten device tree.

Fix this inconsistency by writing powerpc64 specific options to stdout,
similar to the generic 'kexec --help'

With the proposed changes, it is like this (nothing printed to stderr):

    [root@machine kexec-tools]# ./build/sbin/kexec --help > /tmp/out
