Hi Song,

Since RISC-V Linux v6.4, the commit 3335068f8721 ("riscv: Use
PUD/P4D/PGD pages for the linear mapping") changes the
phys_ram_base from the kernel_map.phys_addr to the start of DRAM.
Maybe we could be more explicit here, kernel_map.phys_addr actually
points to the physical start of the kernel so maybe something like that:
"changes phys_ram_base from the physical start of the kernel to the
actual start of the DRAM."
The Crash's VTOP() still uses phys_ram_base and kernel_map.virt_addr
to translate kernel virtual address, that made Crash boot failed with
Linux v6.4 and later version.
Let Linux export kernel_map.va_kernel_pa_offset in v6.5 and Crash can
use "va_kernel_pa_offset" to translate the kernel virtual address in
VTOP() correctly.

You can check/test the Linux changes from this link:
https://github.com/sugarfillet/linux/commits/6.5-rc3-crash
And I'll send the Linux changes to riscv/for-next If you're ok with this patch.

Would you mind giving me the instructions on how to reproduce the issue
please? So that I can add that to our internal CI and avoid this type of
breakage in the future.
Thanks,
Alex
