Usually patches to this file are posted with title format of

Is these checks even needed here? fadump_reserve_mem() checked for all
these already, also dont see any other caller for fadump_cma_init().

So this is the only place where we return 0, which in turn will make the
"ret" in fadump_reserve_mem() as zero forcing to call reserve_crashkernel()
in early_init_devtree().

we are removing it, becos we know "size" here will never be zero?
