Subject: kexec: print out debugging message if required for kexec_load
Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2025 14:34:39 +0800

The commit a85ee18c7900 ("kexec_file: print out debugging message if
required") has added general code printing in kexec_file_load(), but not
in kexec_load().

Especially in the RISC-V architecture, kexec_image_info() has been
removed(commit eb7622d908a0 ("kexec_file, riscv: print out debugging
message if required")).  As a result, when using '-d' for the kexec_load
interface, print nothing in the kernel space.  This might be helpful for
verifying the accuracy of the data passed to the kernel.  Therefore, refer
to this commit a85ee18c7900 ("kexec_file: print out debugging message if
required"), debug print information has been added.
