[PATCH 4/6] kexec: improve the readability of crash_shrink_memory()

The major adjustments are:
1. end = start + new_size.
   The 'end' here is not an accurate representation, because it is not the
   new end of crashk_res, but the start of ram_res, difference 1. So
   eliminate it and replace it with ram_res->start.
2. Use 'ram_res->start' and 'ram_res->end' as arguments to
   crash_free_reserved_phys_range() to indicate that the memory covered by
   'ram_res' is released from the crashk. And keep it close to
   insert_resource().
3. Replace 'if (start == end)' with 'if (!new_size)', clear indication that
   all crashk memory will be shrunken.

No functional change.
