Hibernation: Arbitrary boot kernel support - generic code

Add the bits needed for supporting arbitrary boot kernels to the common
hibernation code.

To support arbitrary boot kernels, make it possible to replace the 'struct
new_utsname' and the kernel version in the hibernation image header by some
architecture specific data that will be used to verify if the image is valid
and to restore the image.
