[PATCH v24 1/6] kdump: return -ENOENT if required cmdline option does not exist

[Zhen Lei]

According to the current crashkernel=Y,low support in other ARCHes, it's
an optional command-line option. When it doesn't exist, kernel will try
to allocate minimum required memory below 4G automatically.

However, __parse_crashkernel() returns '-EINVAL' for all error cases. It
can't distinguish the nonexistent option from invalid option.

Change __parse_crashkernel() to return '-ENOENT' for the nonexistent option
case. With this change, crashkernel,low memory will take the default
value if crashkernel=,low is not specified; while crashkernel reservation
will fail and bail out if an invalid option is specified.
