Thanks for reporting. This one has the same root cause as the i386-randconfig
building. It's because crashk_res|crashk_low_res are defined in
kernel/kexec_core.c, but referenced in generic reservation code in
crash_core.c, while in this lkp's randconfig, CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE is
unset, CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=on. Then undefined reference to `crashk_res'
and `crashk_low_res' are reported.

Below patch can fix it. I will post v3 to contain this.

Subject: [PATCH] crash_core: move crashk_res and crashk_low_res definition
 into crash_core.c
Content-type: text/plain

Both crashk_res and crashk_low_res are used to mark the reserved
crashkernel regions in iomem_resource tree. And later the generic
crashkernel resrvation which references them will be added into
crash_core.c. So move crashk_res and crashk_low_res definition into
crash_core.c to avoid compiling error when CONFIG_CRASH_CORE=on while
CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE is unset.
