There's corner case missed, e.g
1) ,high and ,low are specified, CONFIG_ZONE_DMA|DMA32 is not enabled;
2) ,high and ,low are specified, the whole system memory is under 4G.

Below judgement can filter them away:
        
	if (crash_base > arm64_dma_phys_limit && crash_low_size &&
	    reserve_crashkernel_low(crash_low_size)) {

What's your opinion? Leave it and add document to notice user, or fix it
with code change?

I would suggest merging this series, Lei can add this corner case
handling on top. Since this is a newly added support, we don't have
to make it one step. Doing step by step can make reviewing easier.
