Do we need to enforce the value with page align and minimal size? I
checked crash_load_segments() in arch/x86/kernel/crash.c, it does the
page size aligning in kexec_add_buffer(). And in
load_crashdump_segments() of
kexec-tools/kexec/arch/i386/crashdump-x86.c, it creates elfcorehdr at
below code, the align is 1024, and in generic add_buffer()
implementation, it enforces the memsz page aligned, and changes the
passed align as page alignment.
elfcorehdr = add_buffer(info, tmp, bufsz, memsz, align, min_base,
max_addr, -1);
Maybe we should at least mention this in the help text to notice people.

Can we move the code comment above function interface?

Do we need this code comment? On ARCH where proctionion is made, we
surely need to the protect/unprotect.

Isn't this generic concept to crash hotplug? Should we move it out to

The passed in 'cpu' is not used at all, what is it added for? I didn't
see explanation about it.
