Firmware uses a 32-bit field for size while copying/backing-up memory during MPIPL. So, the maximum value that could be represented with a PAGE_SIZE aligned 32-bit field will be the maximum copy size for a region but FADump capture kernel usually needs more memory than that to be preserved to avoid running into out of memory errors. So, request firmware to copy multiple kernel boot memory regions instead of just one (which worked fine for pseries as 64-bit field was used for size there).

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 Restructured Text 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.
