I think we should stick to this patch. The disabling of the ZONE_DMA(32)
is fairly specialised and you are right that we should not introduce an
artificial 4GB crashkernel boundary on such systems. The slight
confusion may be that ,high triggers a search above 4GB where there's
not such boundary but this would match the documentation anyway.
