This is a bit surprising. I guess I don't have a complete big picture of
the patch series yet. What prevents the crashkernel from using memory at
the [0, _end] range and overwriting the crashed kernel's memory?

Shouldn't the above range start at crashk_res.start?

It actually returns the buffer on success, and NULL on error.

Is it ok to do recursion in the kernel? In this case I believe it's not
problematic since the maximum call depth will be the maximum depth of a
device tree node which shouldn't be too much. Also, there are no local
variables in this function. But I thought it was worth mentioning.

You need to `prop += n_mem_size_cells` here.
