Commit edd8ce67436851a62f99f1d9707b40ea6a8e5323 (Use extended crashkernel
command line on ppc64), changed the logic in reserve_crashkernel()
which deals with the crashkernel= command line option.
This introduced a bug in the case when there is no crashkernel= option,
or it is incorrect. We would fallthrough and calculate the crash_size
based on the existing values in crashk_res. If both start and end are 0,
the default, we calculate the crash_size as 1 byte - which is wrong.
Rework the logic so that we use crashk_res, regardless of whether it's
set by the command line or via the device tree (see prom.c). Then check
if we have an empty range (end == start), and if so make sure to set
both end and start to zero (this is checked in machine_kexec_64.c). Then
we calculate the crash_size once we know we have a non-zero range.
Finally we always want to warn the user if they specify a base != 32MB,
so remove the special case for that in the command line parsing case.
