Baoquan He 32fbe52465 crash: use macro to add crashk_res into iomem early for specific arch 
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 commit 4a693ce65b ("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 commit 85fcde402d ("kexec:
split crashkernel reservation code out from crash_core.c").

README 

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.
