Precedence: bulk

Usually crash_image is defined statically via the crashkernel parameter
or DT.

But if the crash kernel is not used, or is smaller than then
area pre-allocated that memory is wasted.

Also, if the crash kernel was not defined at bootime, there is no way to
use the crash kernel.

Enable runtime allocation of the crash_image if the crash_image is not
defined statically. Following the same memory allocation/validation path
that for the reboot kexec kernel.
