Subject[PATCH v3] kexec: Make a pair of map and unmap reserved pages when kdump fails to start
Date
For some arch, kexec shall map the reserved pages, then use them, when
we try to start the kdump service.

Now kexec will never unmap the reserved pages, once it fails to continue
starting the kdump service.

Make a pair of reserved pages in kdump starting path, whatever kexec
fails or not.
