a) Why on earth is this inlined?

b) Please consider making arch_default_crash_size() a __weak
function. You'll probably find the result to be pleasing.

c) If we can't use __weak then please don't add
ARCH_HAS_DEFAULT_CRASH_SIZE. Instead do this trick:


#ifndef arch_default_crash_size
static inline unsigned long long arch_default_crash_size(unsigned long long total_size)
{
...
}
#define arch_default_crash_size arch_default_crash_size
#endif

because i) it's good to standardise on something and ii) one less
symbol gets added to the kernel.

d) why is asm-generic/kexec.h only included in asm/kexec.h if
CONFIG_KEXEC_AUTO_RESERVE happened to be defined? That makes no
sense - there may be a multitude of reasons why asm/kexec.h wants
to include asm-generic/kexec.h.
