------------------------------------------------------
From: David Hildenbrand <david@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: kexec_file: don't place kexec images on IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED

Memory flagged with IORESOURCE_MEM_DRIVER_MANAGED is special - it won't be
part of the initial memmap of the kexec kernel and not all memory might be
accessible.  Don't place any kexec images onto it.
