The patch titled ("powerpc: make fadump resilient with memory add/remove
events") has made significant changes to the implementation of fadump,
particularly on elfcorehdr creation and fadump crash info header
structure. Therefore, updating the fadump implementation documentation
to reflect those changes.
Following updates are done to firmware assisted dump documentation:
1. The elfcorehdr is no longer stored after fadump HDR in the reserved
dump area. Instead, the second kernel dynamically allocates memory
for the elfcorehdr within the address range from 0 to the boot memory
size. Therefore, update figures 1 and 2 of Memory Reservation during
the first and second kernels to reflect this change.
2. A version field has been added to the fadump header to manage the
future changes to fadump crash info header structure without changing
the fadump header magic number in the future. Therefore, remove the
corresponding TODO from the document.

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).
This also makes the code shorter.
This is analogous to commit 3231dd5862 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.
