On system kernel, the memory region used by crash dump kernel must be
specified by "crashkernel=X@Y" boot parameter. reserve_crashkernel()
will allocate the region in "System RAM" and reserve it for later use.

On crash dump kernel, memory region information in system kernel is
described in a specific region specified by "elfcorehdr=X@Y" boot parameter.
reserve_elfcorehdr() will set aside the region to avoid data destruction
by the kernel.

Crash dump kernel will access memory regions in system kernel via
copy_oldmem_page(), which reads a page with ioremap'ing it assuming that
such pages are not part of main memory of crash dump kernel.
This is true under non-UEFI environment because kexec-tools modifies
a device tree adding "usablemem" attributes to memory sections.
Under UEFI, however, this is not true because UEFI remove memory sections
in a device tree and export all the memory regions, even though they belong
to system kernel.

So we should add "mem=X[MG]" boot parameter to limit the meory size and
avoid hitting the following assertion in ioremap():
	if (WARN_ON(pfn_valid(__phys_to_pfn(phys_addr))))
		return NULL;

No. The prototype is already there in include/linux/crash_dump.h.
