Subject: [PATCH -next 2/2] docs: kdump: Update the crashkernel description for riscv

Now "crashkernel=" parameter on riscv has been updated to support
crashkernel=X,[high,low]. Through which we can reserve memory region
above/within 32bit addressible DMA zone.

Here update the parameter description accordingly.
