If I kdump with --reuse-cmdline on a kernel booted with 'acpi=on', I get the panic below [1]... It looks like Dennis's fix involves changes in mm/memblock.c, maybe they can be extended to support a range instead of just a limit? (It looks like x86 explicitly adds the acpi regions to the crash-kernels memory map in crash_setup_memmap_entries()). Is it possible for the kernel text to be outside this range? (a bug in kexec-tools, or another user of the DT property) If we haven't already failed in this case, it may be worth printing a warning, or refusing to restrict-memory/expose-vmcore.
