Hold on, I suppose kexec reboot also need this, but if it works without
a fix then there might be thing to be made clear.

kexec-tools will read /proc/iomem and recreate the e820 ranges for 2nd
kernel so in theory we should be fine without a fix.

Can you debug the kexec-tools load process about the e820 creating code
path?
