[v15,15/20] arm64: kdump: reserve memory for crash dump kernel

On the startup of primary kernel, the memory region used by crash dump
kernel must be specified by "crashkernel=" kernel parameter.
reserve_crashkernel() will allocate and reserve the region for later use.

User space tools, like kexec-tools, will be able to find that region marked
as "Crash kernel" in /proc/iomem.

It will also make the code more understandable.

I tried this change, but
unfortunately, preserve_crashkernel() calls an external function, parse_crashkernel(),
which is defined only if CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE. So we will see a compiler error in !CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE
if we take #ifdef out around perserve_crashkernel().
