Hari Bathini 11550dc0a0 powerpc/fadump: reuse crashkernel parameter for fadump memory reservation 
fadump supports specifying memory to reserve for fadump's crash kernel
with fadump_reserve_mem kernel parameter.  This parameter currently
supports passing a fixed memory size, like fadump_reserve_mem=<size>
only.  This patch aims to add support for other syntaxes like
range-based memory size
<range1>:<size1>[,<range2>:<size2>,<range3>:<size3>,...] which allows
using the same parameter to boot the kernel with different system RAM
sizes.

As crashkernel parameter already supports the above mentioned syntaxes,
this patch deprecates fadump_reserve_mem parameter and reuses
crashkernel parameter instead, to specify memory for fadump's crash
kernel memory reservation as well.  If any offset is provided in
crashkernel parameter, it will be ignored in case of fadump, as fadump
reserves memory at end of RAM.

Advantages using crashkernel parameter instead of fadump_reserve_mem
parameter are one less kernel parameter overall, code reuse and support
for multiple syntaxes to specify memory.
