[PATCH] of/fdt: move elfcorehdr reservation early for crash dump kernel

[nikhil . gupta]

From: Nikhil Gupta <nikhil.gupta@xxxxxxx>

elfcorehdr_addr is fixed address passed to Second kernel which may be conflicted
with potential reserved memory in Second kernel,so fdt_reserve_elfcorehdr() ahead
of fdt_init_reserved_mem() can relieve this situation.

elfcorehdr addr is calculated in kexec tool based on reserved crashkernel memory space. (Last page is used in top down order)
So It may potentially conflict the reserved memory in 2nd kernel.
Below is log:
load_crashdump_segments: page_offset:   ffffc00000000000
…..
load_crashdump_segments: elfcorehdr 0xf3fff000-0xf3fff3ff
read_1st_dtb: found /sys/firmware/fdt
get_cells_size: #address-cells:2 #size-cells:2
cells_size_fitted: f3fff000-f3fff3ff
cells_size_fitted: d4000000-f3ffffff
