> Add MEMBLOCK_NODUMP to mark regions that should be excluded from
> kdump vmcores.
> 
> The flag is meant for reserved memory that carries no data useful for
> crash analysis. Reusable reserved regions such as CMA may hold useful
> data, so these regions must not be marked MEMBLOCK_NODUMP. Subsequent
> patches wire this up for /reserved-memory entries.
