Kumagai-san, this patch was inspired by this post of yours: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2013-November/010445.html This is a preparatory series to add hugepage support without having to care about the appropriate size of the cyclic buffer. Changelog: * v2: - Keep excluded regions per mem_map_data - Process excluded pages in chunks * v3: - Keep excluded region extents in struct cycle * v4: - Make sure that the excluded region extents are reset when a new ELF segment is processed.
