This patch was dropped because it is obsolete

Subject: x86/crash: fix potential cmem->ranges array overflow
Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2023 16:19:14 +0800

The max_nr_ranges field of cmem allocated in crash_setup_memmap_entries()
is not initialized, its default value is 0.

When elfcorehdr is allocated from the middle of crashk_res due to any
potential reason, that is, `image->elf_load_addr > crashk_res.start &&
image->elf_load_addr + image->elf_headers_sz - 1 < crashk_res.end`,
executing memmap_exclude_ranges() will cause a range split to occur in
crash_exclude_mem_range(), which eventually leads to an overflow of the
cmem->ranges array.

Set cmem->max_nr_ranges to 1 to make crash_exclude_mem_range() return
-ENOMEM instead of causing cmem->ranges array overflow even when a split
happens.
