It is already documented:

Documentation/admin-guide/kdump/kdump.rst:
   On arm64, use "crashkernel=Y[@X]".  Note that the start address of
   the kernel, X if explicitly specified, must be aligned to 2MiB (0x200000).

The doc lies :)

memblock_phys_alloc_range() boils down to 

	for_each_free_mem_range_reverse(i, nid, flags, &this_start, &this_end,
					NULL) {

		/* clamp this_{start,end} to the user defined limits */

		cand = round_down(this_end - size, align);
		if (cand >= this_start)
			return cand;
	}
