Thanks for catching that. Updated patch:

------------------------------------------------------------------
From: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@...e.de>
Subject: Add 'flags' parameter to reserve_bootmem_generic()

This patch adds a 'flags' parameter to reserve_bootmem_generic() like it
already has been added in reserve_bootmem() with commit
72a7fe3967dbf86cb34e24fbf1d957fe24d2f246.

It also changes all users to use BOOTMEM_DEFAULT, which doesn't effectively
change the behaviour. Since the change is x86-specific, I don't think it's
necessary to add a new API for migration. There are only 4 users of that
function.

The change is necessary for the next patch, using reserve_bootmem_generic()
for crashkernel reservation.
