4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 9f88eb4df728aebcd2ddd154d99f1d75b428b897 upstream.
When re-adding crash kernel memory within setup_resources() the
function memblock_add() is used. That function will add memory by
default to node "MAX_NUMNODES" instead of node 0, like the memory
detection code does. In case of !NUMA this will trigger this warning
when the kernel generates the vmemmap:
Usage of MAX_NUMNODES is deprecated. Use NUMA_NO_NODE instead

If NUMA is selected numa_setup_memory() will fix the node assignments
before the vmemmap will be populated; so this warning will only appear
if NUMA is not selected.
To fix this simply use memblock_add_node() and re-add crash kernel
memory explicitly to node 0.
