Subject: kexec: premit reduction of the reserved memory size
From: Amerigo Wang <amwang@redhat.com>

Implement shrinking the reserved memory for crash kernel, if it is more
than enough.

For example, if you have already reserved 128M, now you just want 100M,
you can do:

# echo $((100*1024*1024)) > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size

Note, you can only do this before loading the crash kernel.
