I've already got following config:
CONFIG_DMAR_TABLE=y
CONFIG_INTEL_IOMMU=y
CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP=y

but I don't have intel_iommu=on in kernel cmdline. IIRC, iommu will prevent
2nd kernel from booting ...

I tested crashkernel=128M and crashkernel_low=64M, seems 2nd-kernel/kexec only
works when two params are used in combination.

Thanks,
