crashkernel region could have an overlap with special memory regions like OPAL, RTAS, TCE table & such. These regions are referred to as excluded memory ranges. Setup these ranges during image probe in order to avoid them while finding the buffer for different kdump segments. Override arch_kexec_locate_mem_hole() to locate a memory hole taking these ranges into account.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
