[PATCHv3 2/2] pseries/scm: buffer pmem's bound addr in dt for kexec kernel

[Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com>]

At present, plpar_hcall(H_SCM_BIND_MEM, ...) takes a very long time, so
if dumping to fsdax, it will take a very long time.

Take a closer look, during the papr_scm initialization, the only
configuration is through drc_pmem_bind()-> plpar_hcall(H_SCM_BIND_MEM,
...), which helps to set up the bound address.

On pseries, for kexec -l/-p kernel, there is no reset of hardware, and this
step can be stepped around to save times.  So the pmem bound address can be
passed to the 2nd kernel through a dynamic added property "bound-addr" in
dt node 'ibm,pmemory'.

note: This patch has not been tested since I can not get such a pseries with pmem.
      Please kindly to give some suggestion, thanks.
