powerpc/fadump: re-register firmware-assisted dump if already registered

Firmware-Assisted Dump (FADump) needs to be registered again after any
memory hot add/remove operation to update the crash memory ranges. But
currently, the kernel returns '-EEXIST' if we try to register without
uregistering it first. This could expose the system to racing issues
while unregistering and registering FADump from userspace during udev
events. Spare the userspace of this and let it be taken care of in the
kernel space for a simpler interface.

Since this change, running 'echo 1 > /sys/kernel/fadump_registered'
would result in re-regisering (unregistering and registering) FADump,
if it was already registered.
