Use kernel types please, u64, u32.

"umrngs".

Given it's part of the umem_info struct could it just be "ranges"?

True. Actually, having crash_mem_range *ranges + u32 nr_ranges and populating them seems better. Will do that..

+		return NULL;

	um_info->size = new_size;

+
+	memset(tbuf + um_info->idx, 0, MEM_RANGE_CHUNK_SZ);

Just pass __GFP_ZERO to krealloc?

There are patches submitted to stable fixing a few modules that use krealloc with __GFP_ZERO. Also, this zeroing is not really needed.
I will drop the memset instead..

Thanks
Hari
