x86/crash: optimize CPU changes

crash_prepare_elf64_headers() writes into the elfcorehdr an ELF PT_NOTE
for all possible CPUs.  As such, subsequent changes to CPUs (ie.  hot
un/plug, online/offline) do not need to rewrite the elfcorehdr.

The kimage->file_mode term covers kdump images loaded via the
kexec_file_load() syscall.  Since crash_prepare_elf64_headers() wrote the
initial elfcorehdr, no update to the elfcorehdr is needed for CPU changes.

The kimage->elfcorehdr_updated term covers kdump images loaded via the
kexec_load() syscall.  At least one memory or CPU change must occur to
cause crash_prepare_elf64_headers() to rewrite the elfcorehdr. 
Afterwards, no update to the elfcorehdr is needed for CPU changes.

This code is intentionally *NOT* hoisted into crash_handle_hotplug_event()
as it would prevent the arch-specific handler from running for CPU
changes.  This would break PPC, for example, which needs to update other
information besides the elfcorehdr, on CPU changes.
