OPAL loads kernel & initrd at 512MB offset (256MB size), also exported
as ibm,opal/dump/fw-load-area. So, if boot memory size of FADump is
less than 768MB, kernel memory to be exported as '/proc/vmcore' would
be overwritten by f/w while loading kernel & initrd. To avoid such a
scenario, enforce a minimum boot memory size of 768MB on OPAL platform.

Also, skip using FADump if a newer F/W version loads kernel & initrd
above 768MB.

Can we hide this behind fadump_ops.get_bootmem_min() instead of common code
doing platform check ?

and here too.. fadump_ops.validate_bootmem_size() ? push platform specific
stuff behind fadump_ops.

Rest looks good.

Thanks,

Actually, it would be fine to make this check for both platforms.
So, fadump_ops.get_bootmem_min() callback can be used at both places, I guess..
