That's not exactly the case.  What seems to happen is that there is an ACPI
memory object in the ACPI namespace and the ACPI memory hotplug driver
attempts to bind to it.  That driver attempts to find removable memory blocks
associated with that object and to add them to the memory map.

Why don't you simply append acpi=off to the kexec command line?  That should
make the problem go away.

Thanks!
