Please use passive voice in your commit message: no "we" or "I", etc,
and describe your changes in imperative mood.
Also, pls read section "2) Describe your changes" in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst for more details.
Bottom line is: personal pronouns are ambiguous in text, especially with
so many parties/companies/etc developing the kernel so let's avoid them
please.

This commit message needs to say something along the lines of:
"Move CRASH_ALIGN and ... to the arch-specific header in preparation
of making reserve_crashkernel[_low]() generic, used by other
architectures."
or so.
