Subject: [RFC PATCH 3/6] ARM, crashkernel: correct total_mem size in reserve_crashkernel()

There is some platforms which have highmem, so this equation
doesn't represent total_mem size properly.
In addition, max_low_pfn's meaning is different in other architecture and
it is scheduled to be changed, so remove related code to max_low_pfn.
