Here are a few improvements to the kexec-tools needed to get usable
core dumps out of 64-bit kernels running on Cavium's OCTEON
processors.  Patch 3/4 is OCTEON specific, the rest are needed for
good results on MIPS64 in general.

David Daney (4):
  kexec-tools: mips: Merge adjacent memory ranges.
  kexec-tools: mips: Don't set lowmem_limit to 2G for 64-bit systems.
  kexec-tools: mips: Use proper page_offset for OCTEON CPUs.
  kexec-tools: mips: Try to include bss in kernel vmcore file.
