Hi,

After applied this patch, i made a test on the following machines. It works well.

[a] HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10 (878612-B21) AMD EPYC 7251 8-Core Processor

[b] Dell PowerEdge R7425 AMD EPYC 7401 24-Core Processor

[c] AMD Speedway AMD Eng Sample: 2S1405A3VIHF4_28/14_N

[d] AMD Ethanol X AMD Eng Sample: 2S1402E2VJUG2_20/14_N

On the [a] machine, it works well in the crashkernel=160M case, but need
to remove the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO from .config, otherwise it could happen the
OOM. And it also works well in all >= 256M(crashkernel) cases(no need to
remove the above option from .config).

On the [b][c][d] machine, it also works fine in the crashkernel=256M cases,
also need to remove the debug info, otherwise it could happen the OOM. And
it also works well in all >= 320M(crashkernel) cases.

Thanks.
