crash_core: add generic function to do reservation
In architecture like x86_64, arm64 and riscv, they have vast virtual
address space and usually have huge physical memory RAM. Their
crashkernel reservation doesn't have to be limited under 4G RAM, but can
be extended to the whole physical memory via crashkernel=,high support.
Now add function reserve_crashkernel_generic() to reserve crashkernel
memory if users specify any case of kernel pamameters, like
crashkernel=xM[@offset] or crashkernel=,high|low.
This is preparation to simplify code of crashkernel=,high support in
architecutures.
