[PATCH] Add a sysfs file to determine if a kexec kernel is loaded
Create two files in /sys/kernel, kexec_loaded and kexec_crash_loaded. Each file contains a simple boolean value indicating whether the relevant kernel has been loaded into memory. The motivation for this is geared around support. Signed-off-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.
