Thanks.

1.When kernel boots with crashkernel, the crashkernel parameters format is:
0M-2G:0M,2G-256G:256M,256G-1024G:320M,1024G-:384M which is self-adaption
to multiple system.

2.As mentioned above, the crashkernel mem size maybe less than
PUD_SIZE(Not multiple time to PUD_SIZE).
So, maybe we also need use some non block/section mappings.
