There is no benefit in splitting the 32-bit address space into two distinct DMA zones when the 30-bit address space isn't even available on a device. If that is the case, default to one big ZONE_DMA spanning the whole 32-bit address space.
This will help reduce some of the issues we've seen with big crash kernel allocations.

Whith this patch, on a 8GB RPi4 the setup looks like this:
DMA [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x000000003fffffff] DMA32 [mem 0x0000000040000000-0x00000000ffffffff] Normal [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x00000001ffffffff]
And stock 8GB virtme/qemu:
DMA [mem 0x0000000040000000-0x00000000ffffffff] DMA32 empty Normal [mem 0x0000000100000000-0x000000023fffffff]
