[PATCH] Fix kdump Crash Kernel boot memory reservation for NUMA machines

Browse Source 
This patch will fix a boot memory reservation bug that trashes memory on
the ES7000 when loading the kdump crash kernel.

The code in arch/x86_64/kernel/setup.c to reserve boot memory for the crash
kernel uses the non-numa aware "reserve_bootmem" function instead of the
NUMA aware "reserve_bootmem_generic".  I checked to make sure that no other
function was using "reserve_bootmem" and found none, except the ones that
had NUMA ifdef'ed out.

I have tested this patch only on an ES7000 with NUMA on and off (numa=off)
in a single (non-NUMA) and multi-cell (NUMA) configurations.
