There are regression reports[1][2] that crashkernel region on x86_64 can't be added into iomem tree sometime. This causes the later failure of kdump loading. This happened after commit4a693ce65b("kdump: defer the insertion of crashkernel resources") was merged. Even though, these reported issues are proved to be related to other component, they are just exposed after above commmit applied, I still would like to keep crashk_res and crashk_low_res being added into iomem early as before because the early adding has been always there on x86_64 and working very well. For safety of kdump, Let's change it back. Here, add a macro HAVE_ARCH_ADD_CRASH_RES_TO_IOMEM_EARLY to limit that only ARCH defining the macro can have the early adding crashk_res/_low_res into iomem. Then define HAVE_ARCH_ADD_CRASH_RES_TO_IOMEM_EARLY on x86 to enable it. Note: In reserve_crashkernel_low(), there's a remnant of crashk_low_res handling which was mistakenly added back in commit85fcde402d("kexec: split crashkernel reservation code out from crash_core.c").

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.
