The elfcorehdr describes the CPUs and memory of the crashed kernel to
the kernel that captures the dump, known as the second or fadump kernel.
The elfcorehdr needs to be updated if the system's memory changes due to
memory hotplug or online/offline events.
Currently, memory hotplug events are monitored in userspace by udev
rules, and fadump is re-registered, which recreates the elfcorehdr with
the latest available memory in the system.
However, the previous patch ("powerpc: make fadump resilient with memory
add/remove events") moved the creation of elfcorehdr to the second or
fadump kernel. This eliminates the need to regenerate the elfcorehdr
during memory hotplug or online/offline events.
Create a sysfs entry at /sys/kernel/fadump/hotplug_ready to let
userspace know that fadump re-registration is not required for memory
add/remove events.
