[PATCH v4 1/3] x86/kexec: Fix crash memory reserve exceed system memory bug

On x86_32 Qemu machine with 1GB memory, the cmdline "crashkernel=4G" is ok
as below:
crashkernel reserved: 0x0000000020000000 - 0x0000000120000000 (4096 MB)
The cause is that the crash_size is parsed and printed with "unsigned long
long" data type which is 8 bytes but allocated used with "phys_addr_t"
which is 4 bytes in memblock_phys_alloc_range().
Fix it by checking if the crash_size is greater than system RAM size and
warn out as parse_crashkernel_mem() do it if so as Baoquan suggested.
After this patch, it fails and there is no above confusing reserve
success info.
