On riscv, the current crash kernel allocation logic is trying to
allocate within 32bit addressible memory region by default, if
failed, try to allocate without 4G restriction.

In need of saving DMA zone memory while allocating a relatively large
crash kernel region, allocating the reserved memory top down in
high memory, without overlapping the DMA zone, is a mature solution.
Here introduce the parameter option crashkernel=X,[high,low].

One can reserve the crash kernel from high memory above DMA zone range
by explicitly passing "crashkernel=X,high"; or reserve a memory range
below 4G with "crashkernel=X,low".

How do you differentiate the case user specifies crashkernel=0M,low
explicitly with the case that user doesn't specify crashkernel=,low, but
only specify crsahkernel=xM,high? I saw you don't have the test case
crashkernel=xM,high crashkernel=0M,low listed in your cover letter.

Yes, here is indeed a point not exactly aligned with Arm64 code.
But testcases below seem to have the same result with Arm64:

crashkernel=512M,high	//high=512M, low=128M (default)
crashkernel=512M,high crashkernel=0M,low   //high=512M, low=0M
crashkernel=512M,high crashkernel=256M,low   //high=512M, low=256M


When the first allocation succeed, it will not fallback into
the if (crash_base == 0) case, the allocation result is the same
as Arm64, both for explicitly given "crashkernel=0M,low" or not.

The problem you mentioned might occurs when the first allocation
failed.

My logic here is when crashkernel=xM,high is specified, no matter
crashkernel=0M,low is explicitly given or not, "high" flag is set.
It will fallback to lower 4G allocation, additional lower 4G region
with "crash_low_size" will never get reserved.

So the results between Arm64 and riscv when crashkernel=,low is
specified or not are the same. Is there any problem with my logic,
or have I misunderstood your comment above?

+	if ((crash_base >= dma32_phys_limit) && crash_low_size &&

Here, additional lower memory region will not reserve when
crashkernel=xM,high is given
