Commit 0ab97169aa05 ("crash_core: add generic function to do
reservation") added a generic function to reserve crashkernel memory.
So let's use the same function on powerpc and remove the
architecture-specific code that essentially does the same thing.

The generic crashkernel reservation also provides a way to split the
crashkernel reservation into high and low memory reservations, which can
be enabled for powerpc in the future.

Additionally move powerpc to use generic APIs to locate memory hole for
kexec segments while loading kdump kernel.

Patch series summary:
=====================
Patch 1-2: generic changes
Patch 3-4: powerpc changes
Patch 5:   generic + powerpc changes
