What I meant is that the new kexec'ed kernel needs some memory in the
ZONE_DMA range, currently set to the bottom 30-bit even for platforms
that can cope with the whole 32-bit range (anything other than RPi4).
The memory range available to the kdump kernels is limited to what
reserve_crashkernel() allocated, which may not fit in the lower 1GB.
There are two ongoing threads (complementary):
1. Change the arm64 reserve_crashkernel() similar to x86 which allocates
memory above 4G with a small block in the ZONE_DMA range.
2. Allow zone_dma_bits to be 32 for arm64 platforms other than RPi4.
The second point also fixes some regressions with CMA reservations that
could no longer fit in the lower 1GB.
