64 bit powerpc requires the kexec user space tools avoid overwriting the static kernel image and translation hash table when choosing where to put memory image data because it copies the data into place using the kernels virtual memory system. Kexec userspace determines these and other areas

powerpc: find and destroy possible stale kernel added properties

Because we copy the image using the kernels virtual memory system, we require kexec user space to avoid overwriting the static kernel image, tce tables, and the hash table. Kexec userspace gets this information by reading propertys the kernel adds, but does not filter these propertys when
