powerpc/kdump: Add support for crashkernel CMA reservation
Commit
35c18f2933c5 ("Add a new optional ",cma" suffix to the
crashkernel= command line option") and commit
ab475510e042 ("kdump:
implement reserve_crashkernel_cma") added CMA support for kdump
crashkernel reservation.
Extend crashkernel CMA reservation support to powerpc.
The following changes are made to enable CMA reservation on powerpc:
- Parse and obtain the CMA reservation size along with other crashkernel
parameters
- Call reserve_crashkernel_cma() to allocate the CMA region for kdump
- Include the CMA-reserved ranges in the usable memory ranges for the
kdump kernel to use.
- Exclude the CMA-reserved ranges from the crash kernel memory to
prevent them from being exported through /proc/vmcore.
With the introduction of the CMA crashkernel regions,
crash_exclude_mem_range() needs to be called multiple times to exclude
both crashk_res and crashk_cma_ranges from the crash memory ranges. To
avoid repetitive logic for validating mem_ranges size and handling
reallocation when required, this functionality is moved to a new wrapper
function crash_exclude_mem_range_guarded().
To ensure proper CMA reservation, reserve_crashkernel_cma() is called
after pageblock_order is initialized.
Update kernel-parameters.txt to document CMA support for crashkernel on
powerpc architecture.
