Sourabh Jain 6e5250eaa6 powerpc/crash: use generic APIs to locate memory hole for kdump
On PowerPC, the memory reserved for the crashkernel can contain components
like RTAS, TCE, OPAL, etc., which should be avoided when loading kexec
segments into crashkernel memory.  Due to these special components,
PowerPC has its own set of APIs to locate holes in the crashkernel memory
for loading kexec segments for kdump.  However, for loading kexec segments
in the kexec case, PowerPC already uses generic APIs to locate holes.

The previous patch in this series, titled "crash: Let arch decide usable
memory range in reserved area," introduced arch-specific hook to handle
such special regions in the crashkernel area.  So, switch PowerPC to use
the generic APIs to locate memory holes for kdump and remove the redundant
PowerPC-specific APIs.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
