[POWERPC] pseries: phyp dump: Use sysfs to release reserved mem

Check to see if there actually is data from a previously
crashed kernel waiting.  If so, allow user-space tools to
grab the data (by reading /proc/kcore).  When user-space
finishes dumping a section, it must release that memory
by writing to sysfs. For example,

  echo "0x40000000 0x10000000" > /sys/kernel/release_region

will release 256MB starting at the 1GB.  The released memory
becomes free for general use.
