arm/kexec: refactor for kernel/Kconfig.kexec

Browse source 
The kexec and crash kernel options are provided in the common
kernel/Kconfig.kexec. Utilize the common options and provide
the ARCH_SUPPORTS_ and ARCH_SELECTS_ entries to recreate the
equivalent set of KEXEC and CRASH options.

kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
initially work for you.

Should the atags used to boot the kernel be exported in an "atags"
file in procfs. Useful with kexec.
config CRASH_DUMP
bool "Build kdump crash kernel (EXPERIMENTAL)"
help
Generate crash dump after being started by kexec. This should
be normally only set in special crash dump kernels which are
loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into a specially
reserved region and then later executed after a crash by
kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled to a
memory address not used by the main kernel
