On primary kernel, the memory region used by crash dump kernel must be
specified by "crashkernel=" boot parameter. reserve_crashkernel()
will allocate and reserve the region for later use.

User space tools will be able to find the region marked as "Crash kernel"
in /proc/iomem.

Why can't this bit be moved into reserved_crashkernel, at the end?

What's the point in ret?

What is this magic number? How about SZ_2M and a comment mentioning the
arm64 boot protocol?

Because
- I want to call reserve_crashkernel() as early as possbile, (so before
   request_standard_resources()), and
- if inserting "Crash kernel" region is done before request_standard_resources(),
   request_resource() for "System RAM" region which contains "Crash kernel" will
   fail and the entry will be lost from /proc/iomem.

parse_crashkernel() will returns -EINVAL if
- the boot command line doesn't contain "crashkernel=" parameter, or
- "crashkernel=" parameter has an invalid synstax of value
Otherwise returns 0.

So just returning should be OK, but just in case that the syntax is OK, but
that a resulting crash_size gets 0, I will add a check like:
     if (!crash_size)
         return;

Right. I will do so.

Then may be you do not need to protect calling of reserve_crashkernel() with
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE as well.
