update_flash: Fix bad variable issue
Shells like dash throws error if we try to assign string with space
without double quote. ex:
local bug=ML FW830.00 FW830.00
Sample output without this patch:
update_flash -f 01SV840_016_016.img
/usr/sbin/update_flash: 185: local: FW830.00: bad variable name

update_flash: Stop kexec service before starting firmware update
We run 'reboot' call before initiating firmware update. If kexec service
is enabled, then we endup booting into new kernel instead of starting
firmware update.
This patch validates kexec service and if required stops this service
before starting code update.

update_flash: Stop kexec service before starting firmware update on PowerVM LPAR
We run 'reboot' call before initiating firmware update. If kexec service
is enabled, then we endup booting into new kernel instead of starting
firmware update.
Commit 62dc6d38 fix this issue on PowerNV platform.. but missed to fix
PowerVM LPAR. This patch fixes above described issue on PowerVM LPAR.
