[PATCH v2 4/4] x86, kdump: Change crashkernel_high/low= to crashkernel=;high/low

From: Yinghai Lu
Date: Wed Apr 03 2013 - 20:39:32 EST


Per hpa, use crashkernel=XM;high crashkernel=YM;low instead of
crashkernel_hign=XM crashkernel_low=YM. As that could be extensible.

-v2: according to Vivek, change delimiter to ;
-v3: let hign and low only handle simple form and it conforms to
description in kernel-parameters.txt
still keep crashkernel=X override any crashkernel=X,high
crashkernel=Y,low
