Come on!
I have already fixed this issue, but still waiting for Geoff rebasing his patch
as he is now a submitter of the whole patch series including kexec/kdump.
(Please note, as James suggested, some (minor) modification need be made for
rebasing onto v4.5)

*If* Geoff is no longer willing to work on upstreaming kexec stuff,
I will probably take over his task.
