This pachset looks good to me. While we observed a unexpected case,
where a reserved region cross the high and low meomry region. I noticed
Catalin has pointed that out. Even with the suggested code, we could
have the kernel parameters like: crashkernel=512M,high
crashkernel=128M,low, we finally have [4G-126M, 4G+386M], [1G, 1G+128M]
regions in running kernel. This looks strange.
I am wondering if we can specify explicit search_base in
memblock_phys_alloc_range() to avoid above case. Like this,
crashkernel,high region will only exist in high memory, crashkernel,low
region only exists in low memory region. I made a draft patch based on
this patchset to present what the code looks like.
