powerpc/kexec: Check crash_base for relocatable kernel
Enforce that the crash kernel region never overlaps the current kernel, as it will be written directly on kexec load. Also, default to the previous KDUMP_KERNELBASE if the start is 0. Other architectures (x86, ia64) state that specifying the start address 0 (or omitting it) will result in the kernel allocating it. Before the relocatable patch in 2.6.28, powerpc would adjust any other start value to the hardcoded KDUMP_KERNELBASE of 32M.
