[PATCH v2 2/3] arm64: kdump: Support crashkernel=X fall back to reserve region above DMA zones

[Zhen Lei]

For crashkernel=X without '@offset', select a region within DMA zones
first, and fall back to reserve region above DMA zones. This allows
users to use the same configuration on multiple platforms.
