The crash memory allocation, and the exclude of crashk_res, crashk_low_res
and crashk_cma memory are almost identical across different architectures,
This patch set handle them in crash core in a general way, which eliminate
a lot of duplication code.
And add support for crashkernel CMA reservation for arm64 and riscv.
Rebased on v7.0-rc1.
Basic test were performed on QEMU platforms for x86, ARM64, and RISC-V
architectures with the following parameters:
"cma=256M crashkernel=256M crashkernel=64M,cma"
Changes in v6:
- Update the crash core exclude code as Mike suggested.
- Rebased on v7.0-rc1.
- Add acked-by.
- Link to v5:

Changes in v5:
- Fix the kernel test robot build warnings.
- Sort crash memory ranges before preparing elfcorehdr for powerpc
- Link to v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
Changes in v4:
- Move the size calculation (and the realloc if needed) into the
generic crash.
- Link to v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
Changs in v3:
- Exclude crash kernel memory in crash core as Mike suggested.
- Add acked-by.
