fadump sets up crash memory ranges to be used for creating PT_LOAD
program headers in elfcore header. Memory chunk RMA_START through
boot memory area size is added as the first memory range because
firmware, at the time of crash, moves this memory chunk to different
location specified during fadump registration making it necessary to
create a separate program header for it with the correct offset.
This memory chunk is skipped while setting up the remaining memory
ranges. But currently, there is possibility that some of this memory
may have duplicate entries like when it is hot-removed and added
again. Ensure that no two memory ranges represent the same memory.
When 5 lmbs are hot-removed and then hot-plugged before registering
fadump, here is how the program headers in /proc/vmcore exported by
fadump look like
without this change:

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
