powerpc/fadump: Unregister fadump on kexec down path.
Unregister fadump on kexec down path otherwise the fadump registration in new kexec-ed kernel complains that fadump is already registered. This makes new kernel to continue using fadump registered by previous kernel which may lead to invalid vmcore generation. Hence this patch fixes this issue by un-registering fadump in fadump_cleanup() which is called during kexec path so that new kernel can register fadump with new valid values. Fixes: b500afff11f6 ("fadump: Invalidate registration and release reserved memory for general use.")
