[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 29/66] MIPS: kexec: Relax memory restriction

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sat Nov 09 2019 - 21:49:57 EST


From: Dengcheng Zhu <dzhu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit a6da4d6fdf8bd512c98d3ac7f1d16bc4bb282919 ]

We can rely on the system kernel and the dump capture kernel themselves in
memory usage.

Being restrictive with 512MB limit may cause kexec tool failure on some
platforms.
