Ok, then description in kernel-parameters.txt is wrong.

+	crashkernel_high=size[KMG]
+                       [KNL, x86_64] range above 4G. kernel allocate
physical
+                       memory region above 4G.


Can you please inline your patches. Otherwise how one is supposed to give
review comments?
