Hi Tom,

Looks like kdump will break, I didn't see the similar handling for kdump cases, see kernel:
kimage_alloc_crash_control_pages(), kimage_load_crash_segment(), etc.

We need to support kdump with SME, kdump kernel/initramfs/purgatory/elfcorehdr/etc
are all loaded into the reserved memory(see crashkernel=X) by userspace kexec-tools.
I think a straightforward way would be to mark the whole reserved memory range without
encryption before loading all the kexec segments for kdump, I guess we can handle this
easily in arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres().

Moreover, now that "elfcorehdr=X" is left as decrypted, it needs to be remapped to the
encrypted data.

Regards,
Xunlei
