I have tried the FDT /chosen approach, storing the KHO metadata as
linux,kho-fdt and linux,kho-scratch properties (the same properties
that drivers/of/kexec.c:kho_add_chosen() writes
and drivers/of/fdt.c:early_init_dt_check_kho() reads).

This passes the KHO selftest when the system boots with FDT.

I am currently debugging the ACPI boot case.

Thanks for your advice!
