powerpc/kexec_file: Count hot-pluggable memory in FDT estimate

On Systems where online memory is lesser compared to max memory, the
kexec_file_load system call may fail to load the kdump kernel with the
below errors:

    "Failed to update fdt with linux,drconf-usable-memory property"
    "Error setting up usable-memory property for kdump kernel"

This happens because the size estimation for usable memory properties
for the kdump kernel's FDT is based on the online memory whereas the
usable memory properties include max memory. In short, the hot-pluggable
memory is not accounted for while estimating the size of the usable
memory properties.

The issue is addressed by calculating usable memory property size using
max hotplug address instead of the last online memory address.
