hw/ppc: Preserve memory regions registered for fadump

While the first kernel boots, it registers memory regions for fadump
such as:
    * CPU state data  (has to be populated by the platform)
    * HPTE state data (has to be populated by the platform)
    * Real Mode Regions (platform should copy it to requested
      destination addresses)
    * OS defined regions (such as parameter save area)

Platform is also expected to modify the 'bytes_dumped' to the length of
data preserved/copied by platform (ideally same as the source length
passed by kernel).

The kernel passes source address and length for the memory regions, and
a destination address to where the memory is to be copied.

Implement the preserving/copying of the Real Mode Regions and the
Parameter Save Area in QEMU Pseries

The regions are copied in chunks instead of copying all at once.
