Fix two bugs for x86_32 crash memory reserve, and prepare to apply generic
crashkernel reservation to 32bit system. Then use generic interface to
simplify crashkernel reservation for ARM32.

changes in v4:
- Add the missing macro for loongarch.
- Only define the macro for 64bit RISCV.
- Signed-off-by -> Suggested-by as suggested.
- Remove the Tested-by as suggested.
- Update the commit message.
- Add acked-by.

changes in v3:
- Fix it as Baoquan suggested.
- Update the commit message.

changes in v2:
- Peel off the other two patches.
- Update the commit message and fix tag.

On x86_32 Qemu machine with 1GB memory, the cmdline "crashkernel=1G,high"
will cause system stall as below:

	ACPI: Reserving FACP table memory at [mem 0x3ffe18b8-0x3ffe192b]
	ACPI: Reserving DSDT table memory at [mem 0x3ffe0040-0x3ffe18b7]
	ACPI: Reserving FACS table memory at [mem 0x3ffe0000-0x3ffe003f]
	ACPI: Reserving APIC table memory at [mem 0x3ffe192c-0x3ffe19bb]
	ACPI: Reserving HPET table memory at [mem 0x3ffe19bc-0x3ffe19f3]
	ACPI: Reserving WAET table memory at [mem 0x3ffe19f4-0x3ffe1a1b]
	143MB HIGHMEM available.
	879MB LOWMEM available.
	  mapped low ram: 0 - 36ffe000
	  low ram: 0 - 36ffe000
	 (stall here)

The reason is that the CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX is equal to CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX
on x86_32, the first high crash kernel memory reservation will fail, then
go into the "retry" loop and never came out as below.

-> reserve_crashkernel_generic() and high is true
 -> alloc at [CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX, CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX] fail
    -> alloc at [0, CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX] fail and repeatedly
       (because CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX = CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX).

Fix it by prevent crashkernel=,high from being parsed successfully on 32bit
system with a architecture-defined macro.

After this patch, the 'crashkernel=,high' for 32bit system can't succeed,
and it has no chance to call reserve_crashkernel_generic(), therefore this
issue on x86_32 is solved.

On x86_32 Qemu machine with 1GB memory, the cmdline "crashkernel=512M" will
also cause system stall as below:

	ACPI: Reserving FACP table memory at [mem 0x3ffe18b8-0x3ffe192b]
	ACPI: Reserving DSDT table memory at [mem 0x3ffe0040-0x3ffe18b7]
	ACPI: Reserving FACS table memory at [mem 0x3ffe0000-0x3ffe003f]
	ACPI: Reserving APIC table memory at [mem 0x3ffe192c-0x3ffe19bb]
	ACPI: Reserving HPET table memory at [mem 0x3ffe19bc-0x3ffe19f3]
	ACPI: Reserving WAET table memory at [mem 0x3ffe19f4-0x3ffe1a1b]
	143MB HIGHMEM available.
	879MB LOWMEM available.
	  mapped low ram: 0 - 36ffe000
	  low ram: 0 - 36ffe000
	  (stall here)

The reason is that the CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX is equal to CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX
on x86_32, the first "low" crash kernel memory reservation for 512M fails,
then it go into the "retry" loop and never came out as below (consider
CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX = CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX = 512M):

-> reserve_crashkernel_generic() and high is false
   -> alloc at [0, 0x20000000] fail
      -> alloc at [0x20000000, 0x20000000] fail and repeatedly
      (because CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX = CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX).

Fix it by skipping meaningless calls of memblock_phys_alloc_range() with
`start = end`

After this patch, the retry dead loop is avoided and print below info:
	cannot allocate crashkernel (size:0x20000000)

And apply generic crashkernel reservation to 32bit system will be ready.

Currently, x86, arm64, riscv and loongarch has been switched to generic
crashkernel reservation, which is also ready for 32bit system.
So with the help of function parse_crashkernel() and generic
reserve_crashkernel_generic(), arm32 crashkernel reservation can also
be simplified by steps:

1) Add a new header file <asm/crash_reserve.h>, and define CRASH_ALIGN,
   CRASH_ADDR_LOW_MAX, CRASH_ADDR_HIGH_MAX in it;

2) Add arch_reserve_crashkernel() to call parse_crashkernel() and
   reserve_crashkernel_generic();

3) Add ARCH_HAS_GENERIC_CRASHKERNEL_RESERVATION Kconfig in
   arch/arm/Kconfig.

The old reserve_crashkernel() can be removed.

Following test cases have been performed as expected on QEMU vexpress-a9
(1GB system memory):

1) crashkernel=4G,high				// invalid
2) crashkernel=1G,high				// invalid
3) crashkernel=1G,high crashkernel=0M,low	// invalid
4) crashkernel=256M,high			// invalid
5) crashkernel=256M,low				// invalid
6) crashkernel=256M crashkernel=256M,high	// high is ignored, ok
7) crashkernel=256M crashkernel=256M,low	// low is ignored, ok
8) crashkernel=256M,high crashkernel=256M,low	// invalid
9) crashkernel=256M,high crashkernel=4G,low	// invalid
10) crashkernel=256M				// ok
11) crashkernel=512M				// ok
12) crashkernel=256M@0x88000000			// ok
13) crashkernel=256M@0x78000000			// ok
14) crashkernel=512M@0x78000000			// ok
