Paul Mackerras 0dcd440120 powerpc: Revert CHRP boot wrapper to real-base = 12MB on 32-bit
Commit 9b09c6d909dfd8de96b99b9b9c808b94b0a71614 ("powerpc: Change the
default link address for pSeries zImage kernels") changed the
real-base value in the CHRP note added by addnote to the zImage from
12MB to 32MB.  It turns out that this causes unnecessary extra reboots
on old 32-bit CHRP machines.  This therefore adds a -r flag to addnote
to allow us to specify what real-base value it should put in the CHRP
note, and adjusts the wrapper script to pass -r c00000 to addnote when
making a zImage for a CHRP machine.  Also, CHRP machines ignore the
RPA note, so we don't need to arrange for it to be the same as the
kernel's.

To extract the kernel vmlinux, System.map, .config or initrd from the zImage binary:

objcopy -j .kernel:vmlinux -O binary zImage vmlinux.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:System.map -O binary zImage System.map.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:.config -O binary zImage config.gz
objcopy -j .kernel:initrd -O binary zImage.initrd initrd.gz
