[PATCHv8 11/14] x86: Disable kexec if system has unaccepted memory

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Tue Dec 06 2022 - 20:50:26 EST


On kexec, the target kernel has to know what memory has been accepted.
Information in EFI map is out of date and cannot be used.

boot_params.unaccepted_memory can be used to pass the bitmap between two
kernels on kexec, but the use-case is not yet implemented.

Disable kexec on machines with unaccepted memory for now.
