Crash dump kernel utilizes only a subset of available memory as System RAM.
On arm64 kdump, This memory range is advertized to crash dump kernel via
a device-tree property under /chosen,
   linux,usable-memory-range = <BASE SIZE>

Crash dump kernel reads this property at boot time and calls
memblock_cap_memory_range() to limit usable memory ranges which are
described as entries in UEFI memory map table or "memory" nodes in
a device tree blob.
