[PATCH v3 7/7] powerpc/crash: use generic crashkernel reservation

Commit 0ab97169aa05 ("crash_core: add generic function to do
reservation") added a generic function to reserve crashkernel memory.
So let's use the same function on powerpc and remove the
architecture-specific code that essentially does the same thing.

The generic crashkernel reservation also provides a way to split the
crashkernel reservation into high and low memory reservations, which can
be enabled for powerpc in the future.

Along with moving to the generic crashkernel reservation, the code
related to finding the base address for the crashkernel has been
separated into its own function name get_crash_base() for better
readability and maintainability.
