Kumagai-san,

this patch was inspired by this post of yours:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2013-November/010445.html

Unfortunately, this rewrite never happened, so I took the liberty of
overtaking the job. I hope you don't mind.

This is a preparatory series to add hugepage support without having
to care about the appropriate size of the cyclic buffer.

Changelog:
* v2:
  - Keep excluded regions per mem_map_data
  - Process excluded pages in chunks

* v3:
  - Keep excluded region extents in struct cycle

Petr Tesarik (2):
  Generic handling of multi-page exclusions
  Get rid of overrun adjustments
