It appears to me that
        #define KERNEL_TEXT_SIZE  (40UL*1024*1024)
        (kexec/arch/x86_64/crashdump-x86_64.h)
is very small.

I am trying to load a bzImage as a dump capture kernel.  It's text size
is over 80M.
get_kernel_vaddr_and_size()  cannot identify it as kernel text.
(kexec/arch/x86_64/crashdump-x86_64.c)

Is mine just an extraordinarly large kernel?
