[PATCH 0/4] ARM kdump fixes

Hello all,

Here is a set of patches which I hope allows us to build
crashkernels on ARM platforms. The first patch is needed so that we
can get rid of a compiler warning when building /proc/vmcore on
32-bit only platform. I think it should go via Andrew's tree (if
accepted, that is).

Patches 2 and 3 should replace following patches which are in
Russell's patch tracker:

	6121/1 allow passing an ELF64 header to elf_check_arch()
	-> http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=6121/1

	6123/1 kdump: add CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP Kconfig option
	-> http://www.arm.linux.org.uk/developer/patches/viewpatch.php?id=6123/1

The last patch converts reserve_crashkernel() to use memblock.

Thanks,
MW

  ARM: provide zero vmcore_elf64_check_arch()
  ARM: add CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP to Kconfig
  ARM: memblock: convert reserve_crashkernel() to use memblock
