On QEMU vexpress-a9 with 1GB memory, the crash kernel "crashkernel=4G"
is ok as below:
Reserving 4096MB of memory at 2432MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 1024MB)
The above info is confusing, because the System memory is as below:
# cat /proc/iomem | grep Sys
60000000-9fffffff : System RAM
The cause is that the crash_size is parsed and printed with "unsigned long
long" data type which is 8 bytes but used with "phys_addr_t" which is
4 bytes in memblock_phys_alloc_range().
Fixes: 9d17f3372306 ("ARM: 9190/1: kdump: add invalid input check for 'crashkernel=0'")
