[PATCH 1/3] arm64: kdump: Allocate crash low memory in the bottom-up direction

arm64_memblock_init()
reserve_crashkernel() (1)
paging_init()
map_mem() (2)
unflatten_device_tree or parse ACPI (3)
bootmem_init()
zone_sizes_init()
Update arm64_dma_phys_limit (4)
late_reserve_crashkernel() (5)

For most arm64 platforms, DMA-capable devices can access the whole low 4G
memory without SMMU enabled. So we can directly use SZ_4G as upper limit
to do memblock alloc. However, DMA zone does not cover all the 32-bit
addressable memory on some specific platforms (e.g. 30-bit on Raspberry
Pi 4), and the upper limit of DMA zone (arm64_dma_phys_limit) is updated
after map_mem(), see (3)(4) above. Let's change the allocation direction
of low memory from top-town to bottom-up. In this way, as long as DMA zone
has continuous free memory that meets the size, the memory reserved for
crash will not exceed DMA zone. Of course, it's possible that the DMA zone
is not enough, so add late_reserve_crashkernel() to perform fall back if
need:
1. For case crashkernel=X(offset is not specified)
Fall back to reserve region above DMA zone, and reserve default size of
memory in DMA zone.
2. For case crashkernel=X,high
Fall back to searching the low memory with the specified size in
crashkernel=,high.

In reserve_crashkernel(), the allocation policy is as follows:

low high
|<---DMA---|--------------------->|
| |
|<<<-------------(1)--------------| top-town
|----------------(2)----------->>>| bottom-up

(1) crashkernel=Y,high, upper limit is known, top-town.
(2) crashkernel=Y,low, crashkernel=X, upper limit is unknown, bottom-up.
(x) crashkernel=X@offset, fixed.
