Subject: [PATCH v9 3/5] arm64: kdump: add memory for devices by DT property linux,usable-memory-range

If we want to reserve crashkernel above 4G, we could use parameters
"crashkernel=X crashkernel=Y,low", in this case, specified size low
memory is reserved for crash dump kernel devices and never mapped by
the first kernel. This memory range is advertised to crash dump kernel
via DT property under /chosen,
	linux,usable-memory-range = <BASE1 SIZE1 [BASE2 SIZE2]>

We reused the DT property linux,usable-memory-range and made the low
memory region as the second range "BASE2 SIZE2", which keeps compatibility
with existing user-space and older kdump kernels.

Crash dump kernel reads this property at boot time and call memblock_add()
to add the low memory region after memblock_cap_memory_range() has been
called.
