kdump x86: fix total mem size calculation for reservation
crashkernel reservation need know the total memory size. Current get_total_mem simply use max_pfn - min_low_pfn. It is wrong because it will including memory holes in the middle. Especially for kvm guest with memory > 0xe0000000, there's below in qemu code: qemu split memory as below: if (ram_size >= 0xe0000000 ) { above_4g_mem_size = ram_size - 0xe0000000; below_4g_mem_size = 0xe0000000; } else { below_4g_mem_size = ram_size; } So for 4G mem guest, seabios will insert a 512M usable region beyond of 4G. Thus in above case max_pfn - min_low_pfn will be more than original memsize. Fixing this issue by using memblock_phys_mem_size() to get the total memsize.
