To reserve memory for normal kexec reboot, the new parameter:
kexeckernel=size[KMG][@offset[KMG]] is used. Its syntax is the
same as craskernel=, therefore they can use the same function to
parse parameter settings.
Rename: __parse_crashkernel() to parse_crash_or_kexec_kernel(), and
make it public.
