4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Marcin Nowakowski <marcin.nowakowski@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a8f108d70c74d83574c157648383eb2e4285a190 ] Do not reserve memory for the crashkernel if the commandline argument points to a wrong location. This can happen if the location is specified wrong or if the same commandline is reused when starting the crashkernel - in the latter case the reserved memory would point to the location from which the crashkernel is executing.
