Crash dump kernel utilizes only a subset of available memory as System RAM. On arm64 kdump, This memory range is advertized to crash dump kernel via a device-tree property under /chosen, linux,usable-memory-range = <BASE SIZE> Crash dump kernel reads this property at boot time and calls memblock_cap_memory_range() to limit usable memory ranges which are described as entries in UEFI memory map table or "memory" nodes in a device tree blob.
