This conflicts (both mechanically and somewhat conceptually) with
Xunlei Pang's "kexec: Introduce a protection mechanism for the
crashkernel reserved memory" and "kexec: provide
arch_kexec_protect(unprotect)_crashkres()".

http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/kexec-introduce-a-protection-mechanism-for-the-crashkernel-reserved-memory-v4.patch
and

http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/kexec-provide-arch_kexec_protectunprotect_crashkres-v4.patch
so can we please sort all that out?
