it will likely be merged if the core developer (Eric Biederman) takes some time to push it harder at Andrew Morton. Kexec has very minimal impact on the kernel and is quite a low risk patch. Randy Dunlap (at OSDL with Andrew) is quite active with maintaining current kexec patches as new releases of the 2.6 and 2.6-mm are made.
