I don't know maxcpus on arm and ppc64 well. But maxcpus=1 or nr_cpus=1 are suggested parameter. Because usually nr_cpus=1 is enough to make kdump kernel work well to capture vmcore. However, user is allowed to specify nr_cpus=n (n>1) if they think multiple cpus are needed in kdump kernel. Your hard coding of cpu number in kdump kernel may be not so reasonable. Please cc kexec mailing list when posting so that people can view the whole thread of discussion.
