Vivek found some problems with old kexec-tools.
We keep the old crashkernel=X to old behavoir, so it will not break
old kexec-tools.
Add crashkernel=X,high to support new kexec-tools that supports loading high.
when high is used, memblock will search from top to low.
if the allocated one is above 4G, kernel will try to auto allocate
72M under 4G for swiotlb.
user could crashkernel=Y,low to change 72M to other value.
-v2: reorder the patch sequences
crashkernel=X,high, crashkernel=Y,low only handle simple form.
crashkernel=X will override crashkernel=X;high crashkernel=Y;low
-v3: update description in kernel-parameters.txt
update get_last_crashkernel and _simple checking about suffix.
-v4: update to use ,high again, and also not abuse parse_crashkernel_simple
-v5: tight checking about crashkernel=X,highextra,high
Thanks
Yinghai
Vivek found old kexec-tools does not work new kernel anymore.
So change back crashkernel= back to old behavoir, and add crashkernel_high=
to let user decide if buffer could be above 4G, and also new kexec-tools will
be needed.
-v2: let crashkernel=X override crashkernel_high=
update description about _high will be ignored by crashkernel=X
-v3: update description about kernel-parameters.txt according to Vivek.

Chao said that kdump does does work well on his system on 3.8
without extra parameter, even iommu does not work with kdump.
And now have to append crashkernel_low=Y in first kernel to make
kdump work.
We have now modified crashkernel=X to allocate memory beyong 4G (if
available) and do not allocate low range for crashkernel if the user
does not specify that with crashkernel_low=Y. This causes regression
if iommu is not enabled. Without iommu, swiotlb needs to be setup in
first 4G and there is no low memory available to second kernel.
Set crashkernel_low automatically if the user does not specify that.
For system that does support IOMMU with kdump properly, user could
specify crashkernel_low=0 to save that 72M low ram.
-v3: add swiotlb_size() according to Konrad.
-v4: add comments what 8M is for according to hpa.
also update more crashkernel_low= in kernel-parameters.txt

Hi hpa,
Can you please consider including these patches for 3.9. Today, another
kdump user ran into issues when he tried to use latest kernel (3.9-rcx)
with existing kexec-tools. Obiviously kernel loading failed due to
crashkernel memory being reserved too high.
Thanks
Vivek
