[PATCH 1/7] RISC-V: Use linux,usable-memory-range for crash kernel

Now we use "memeory::linux,usable-memory" to indicate the available
memory for the crash kernel.
While booting with UEFI, the crash kernel would use efi.memmap to
re-populate memblock and then first kernel's memory would be corrputed.
Consequently, the /proc/vmcore file failed to create in my local test.
And according to "chosen" dtschema [1], the available memory for the
crash kernel should be held via "chosen::linux,usable-memory-range"
property which will re-cap memblock even after UEFI's re-population.
