I think it's good.

I will test it tomorrow. I've prepared a little more use cases than yours.

1) crashkernel=4G						//high=4G, low=256M
2) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=512M,high crashkernel=512M,low	//high=4G, low=256M, high and low are ignored
3) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=512M,high				//high=4G, low=256M, high is ignored
4) crashkernel=4G crashkernel=512M,low				//high=4G, low=256M, low is ignored
5) crashkernel=4G at 0xe0000000					//high=0G, low=0M, cannot allocate, failed
6) crashkernel=512M						//high=0G, low=512M
7) crashkernel=128M						//high=0G, low=128M
8) crashkernel=512M at 0xde000000		//512M at 3552M		//high=0G, low=512M
9) crashkernel=4G,high						//high=4G, low=256M
a) crashkernel=4G,high crashkernel=512M,low			//high=4G, low=512M
b) crashkernel=512M,high crashkernel=128M,low			//high=512M, low=128M
c) crashkernel=512M,low						//high=0G, low=0M, invalid

It feels like {} may need to be added here so that it is in branch "if (crash_base >= SZ_4G)".
The case of "crashkernel=128M" will not fall back to high memory and does not need to reserve
low memory again.
