Access the parmarea in head.S via a struct instead of individual offsets.
While at it make the fields in the parmarea .quads.

To register data for the next kernel (command line, oldmem_base, etc.) the
current kernel needs to find the ELF segment that contains head.S. This is
currently done by checking ifor 'phdr->p_paddr == 0'. This works fine for
the current kernel build but in theory the first few pages could be
skipped. Make the detection more robust by checking if the entry point lies
within the segment.

When loading an ELF image via kexec_file the segment alignment is ignored
in the calculation for the load address of the next segment. When there are
multiple segments this can lead to segment overlap and thus load failure.

Add an ELF loader for kexec_file. The main task here is to do proper sanity
checks on the ELF file. Basically all other functionality was already
implemented for the image loader.
