Currently the page offset is hard coded to 0xe000000000000000UL
at compile time of kexec-tools. This patch changes things around
so the page offset is handed to purgatory by the kexecing kernel.

Note that this changes the ABI between purgatory (part of kexec-tools)
and the kernel kexec code. There are both kernel and kexec-tools portions
of this patch. However, they are both quite short and IMHO simple.
