Yes. I added the following debug print to efi_reserve_boot_services():

This memory [0x0000005976a018-0x00000005976abc7] is reserved here, which belongs to EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA.
[ 0.000000] memblock_reserve: [0x000000005976a018-0x000000005976abc7] efi_memattr_init+0x51/0xa0
It falls in the following range
[ 0.000000] efi: mem22: [Boot Data | | | | | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x0000000051329000-0x000000005cefefff] (187MB)
in efi_reserve_boot_services(), [0x0000005132900-0x00000005cefeff] will not be fully reserved because [0x0000005976a018-0x0000005976abc7]
has already been reserved and overlaps with [0x0000005976a018-0x0000005976abc7]
[ 0.021316] efi: kdumpdebug: efi_reserve_boot_services start 0x51329000, size 0xbbd6000, type 0x4, already_reserved 1
It is not reserved by memblock, this free memory region is allocated by crashkernel
[ 0.022597] crashkernel low memory reserved: 0x49000000 - 0x59000000 (256 MB)
[ 0.022599] crashkernel reserved: 0x000000c01f000000 - 0x000000c03f000000 (512 MB)
In efi_bgrt_init (), it is assumed that the memory of the EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA type has been successfully
reserved. Therefore, the address in the range is directly used. As a result, the memory overlaps with
the crashkernel region.

It should be because the log content is too large and has been put on hold. In my previous email, I received a prompt:
The reason it is being held:
Message body is too big: 248998 bytes with a limit of 40 KB
