Subject: kernel/kexec: change the prototype of kimage_map_segment()
Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2025 21:09:21 +0800
The kexec segment index will be required to extract the corresponding
information for that segment in kimage_map_segment(). Additionally,
kexec_segment already holds the kexec relocation destination address and
size. Therefore, the prototype of kimage_map_segment() can be changed.
