[PATCH kexec-tools 21/32] arm: parse crash_reserved_mem early

Russell King rmk at arm.linux.org.uk
Tue May 3 03:22:52 PDT 2016


We parse the crash kernel memory region in several locations in the
kexec tools - once to check that there's a region, another time for
real when we're locating the memory regions to dump, and another
while loading the image.

Move the real parsing step to is_crashkernel_mem_reserved(), which
matches what x86 is doing.
