Subject: efi: disable mirror feature during crashkernel
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2024 12:15:36 +0800

If the system has no mirrored memory or uses crashkernel.high while
kernelcore=mirror is enabled on the command line then during crashkernel,
there will be limited mirrored memory and this usually leads to OOM.

To solve this problem, disable the mirror feature during crashkernel.
