[ARM] 4137/1: Add kexec support

Add kexec support to ARM.

Improvements like commandline handling could be made but this patch gives
basic functional support. It uses the next available syscall number, 347.

Once the syscall number is known, userspace support will be
finalised/submitted to kexec-tools, various patches already exist.

Originally based on a patch by Maxim Syrchin but updated and forward
ported by various people.
