Dave Young b9ac3849af x86/kdump: Fall back to reserve high crashkernel memory
crashkernel=xM tries to reserve memory for the crash kernel under 4G,
which is enough, usually. But this could fail sometimes, for example
when one tries to reserve a big chunk like 2G, for example.

So let the crashkernel=xM just fall back to use high memory in case it
fails to find a suitable low range. Do not set the ,high as default
because it allocates extra low memory for DMA buffers and swiotlb, and
this is not always necessary for all machines.

Typically, crashkernel=128M usually works with low reservation under 4G,
so keep <4G as default.
