From fe2d48b805d01e14ddb8144de01de43171eb516f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Bohac Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2017 18:16:02 +0200 Subject: x86/debug: Extend the lower bound of crash kernel low reservations The following change in 2013: 0212f9159694 ("x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation") ... introduced reserve_crashkernel_low(). This function is used to reserve crash kernel memory either if crashkernel=size,low is given on the command line or if the region reserved by reserve_crashkernel is entirely above 4G. reserve_crashkernel_low() tries to find a block of 'low_size' bytes. But there seems to be no good reason to restrict the lower bound of the range to 'low_size'. Make memblock_find_in_range() search from the start of memory.
