[PATCH v19 07/13] arm64: limit memory regions based on DT property, usable-memory

[Geoff Levand]

From: AKASHI Takahiro <takahiro.aka...@linaro.org>

Crash dump kernel will be run with a limited range of memory as System
RAM.

On arm64, we will use a device-tree property under /chosen,
   linux,usable-memory = <BASE SIZE>
in order for primary kernel either on uefi or non-uefi (device tree only)
system to hand over the information about usable memory region to crash
dump kernel. This property will supercede entries in uefi memory map table
and "memory" nodes in a device tree.
