[PATCH v3 2/2] kexec: Provide arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres()

From: Xunlei Pang
Date: Thu Jan 07 2016 - 21:34:40 EST


Implement the protection method for the crash kernel memory
reservation for the 64-bit x86 kdump.

Signed-off-by: Xunlei Pang <xlpang@xxxxxxxxxx>
---
v2->v3:
1) Make kexec_mark_range() more robust.
2) In kexec_mark_crashkres(), use Macro KEXEC_CONTROL_PAGE_SIZE
instead of 2*PAGE_SIZE
