[PATCH] kdump: Defer the insertion of crashkernel resources

In /proc/iomem, sub-regions should be inserted after their parent,
otherwise the insertion of parent resource fails. But after generic
crashkernel reservation applied, in both RISC-V and ARM64 (LoongArch
will also use generic reservation later on), crashkernel resources are
inserted before their parent, which causes the parent disappear in
/proc/iomem. So we defer the insertion of crashkernel resources to an
early_initcall().

1, Without 'crashkernel' parameter:
