This change enables multikernel functionality while maintaining backward compatibility. Key changes: - Add list_head member to kimage structure for chaining - Implement thread-safe linked list management with global mutex - Update kexec load/unload logic to use list-based APIs for multikernel - Add helper functions for finding and managing multiple kimages - Preserve existing kexec_image/kexec_crash_image pointers for compatibility - Update architecture-specific crash handling to use new APIs The multikernel case now properly uses list-based management instead of overwriting compatibility pointers, allowing multiple multikernel images to coexist in the system.
