Add a sysfs entry /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_cma_ranges to expose all CMA crashkernel ranges. This allows userspace tools configuring kdump to determine how much memory is reserved for crashkernel. If CMA is used, tools can warn users when attempting to capture user pages with CMA reservation. The new sysfs hold the CMA ranges in below format: cat /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_cma_ranges 100000000-10c7fffff The reason for not including Crash CMA Ranges in /proc/iomem is to avoid conflicts. It has been observed that contiguous memory ranges are sometimes shown as two separate System RAM entries in /proc/iomem. If a CMA range overlaps two System RAM ranges, adding crashk_res to /proc/iomem can create a conflict. Reference [1] describes one such instance on the PowerPC architecture.

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.
