[patch] [PATCH] Use BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE for i386

[bwalle@suse.de (Bernhard Walle)]

This patch uses the BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE for crashkernel reservation also for i386
and prints a error message on failure.

The patch is still for 2.6.26 since it is only bug fixing. The unification of
reserve_crashkernel() between i386 and x86_64 should be done for 2.6.27.
