[PATCH v31 00/12] add kdump support

[AKASHI Takahiro]

This patch series adds kdump support on arm64.

To load a crash-dump kernel to the systems, a series of patches to
kexec-tools[1] are also needed. Please use the latest one, v5 [2].
For your convinience, you can pick them up from:
   https://git.linaro.org/people/takahiro.akashi/linux-aarch64.git arm64/kdump
   https://git.linaro.org/people/takahiro.akashi/kexec-tools.git arm64/kdump

To examine vmcore (/proc/vmcore) on a crash-dump kernel, you can use
  - crash utility (v7.1.8 or later, i.e. master for now) [3]

I tested this patchset on fast model and hikey.
(under various configurations, including 4KB-page/39,48-bits, 64KB-page/
42-bits with hibernate)

The previous versions were also:
Tested-by: Pratyush Anand <panand at redhat.com> (v29, mustang and seattle)
Tested-by: James Morse <james.morse at arm.com> (v27, Juno)

Changes for v31 (Feb 1, 2017)
  o add/use remove_pgd_mapping() instead of modifying (__)create_pgd_mapping()
    to protect crash dump kernel memory (patch #4,5)
  o fix an issue at the isolation of crash dump kernel memory in
    map_mem()/__map_memblock(), adding map_crashkernel() (patch#5)
  o preserve the contents of crash dump kernel memory around hibernation
    (patch#6)

Changes for v30 (Jan 24, 2017)
  o rebased to Linux-v4.10-rc5
  o remove "linux,crashkernel-base/size" from exported device tree
  o protect memory region for crash-dump kernel (adding patch#4,5)
  o remove "in_crash_kexec" variable
  o and other trivial changes

Changes for v29 (Dec 28, 2016)
  o rebased to Linux-v4.10-rc1
  o change asm constraints in crash_setup_regs() per Catalin

Changes for v28 (Nov 22, 2016)
  o rebased to Linux-v4.9-rc6
  o revamp patch #1 and merge memblock_cap_memory_range() with
    memblock_mem_limit_remove_map()

Changes for v27 (Nov 1, 2016)
  o rebased to Linux-v4.9-rc3
  o revert v26 change, i.e. revive "linux,usable-memory-range" property
    (patch #2/#3, updating patch #9)
  o minor fixes per review comments (patch #3/#4/#6/#8)
  o re-order patches and improve commit messages for readability

Changes for v26 (Sep 7, 2016):
  o Use /reserved-memory instead of "linux,usable-memory-range" property
    (dropping v25's patch#2 and #3, updating ex-patch#9.)

Changes for v25 (Aug 29, 2016):
  o Rebase to Linux-4.8-rc4
  o Use memremap() instead of ioremap_cache() [patch#5]

Changes for v24 (Aug 9, 2016):
  o Rebase to Linux-4.8-rc1
  o Update descriptions about newly added DT proerties

Changes for v23 (July 26, 2016):

  o Move memblock_reserve() to a single place in reserve_crashkernel()
  o Use  cpu_park_loop() in ipi_cpu_crash_stop()
  o Always enforce ARCH_LOW_ADDRESS_LIMIT to the memory range of crash kernel
  o Re-implement fdt_enforce_memory_region() to remove non-reserve regions
    (for ACPI) from usable memory at crash kernel

Changes for v22 (July 12, 2016):

  o Export "crashkernel-base" and "crashkernel-size" via device-tree,
    and add some descriptions about them in chosen.txt
  o Rename "usable-memory" to "usable-memory-range" to avoid inconsistency
    with powerpc's "usable-memory"
  o Make cosmetic changes regarding "ifdef" usage
  o Correct some wordings in kdump.txt

Changes for v21 (July 6, 2016):

  o Remove kexec patches.
  o Rebase to arm64's for-next/core (Linux-4.7-rc4 based).
  o Clarify the description about kvm in kdump.txt.
