arm64: kexec: load from kimage prior to clobbering
In arm64_relocate_new_kernel() we load some fields out of the kimage structure after relocation has occurred. As the kimage structure isn't allocated to be relocation-safe, it may be clobbered during relocation, and we may load junk values out of the structure. Due to this, kexec may fail when the kimage allocation happens to fall within a PA range that an object will be relocated to. This has been observed to occur for regular kexec on a QEMU TCG 'virt' machine with 2GiB of RAM, where the PA range of the new kernel image overlaps the kimage structure. Avoid this by ensuring we load all values from the kimage structure prior to relocation. I've tested this atop v5.16 and v5.18-rc6.
