Re: [PATCH] s390/kexec: Consolidate crash_map/unmap_reserved_pages() and arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres()

[Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hello Xunlei,

This patch can has potential to create some funny side effects.
Especially the change from memblock_remove() to memblock_reserve()
and the later call of reserve_crashkernel().

Give me some time. I will look into this next week.
