OK, but I found that the two functions have a bit different semantics
in clipping memory range, in particular, when the range [base,base+size)
goes across several regions with a gap.
(This does not happen in my arm64 kdump, though.)
That is, 'limit' in memblock_mem_limit_remove_map() means total size of
available memory, while 'size' in memblock_cap_memory_range() indicates
the size of _continuous_ memory range.
So I added an extra argument, exact, to a common function to specify
distinct behaviors. Confusing? Please see the patch below.
If nobody objects to this merge, I will submit a whole patchset of kdump
again.
Thanks,
