kexec-tools: ppc64: avoid adding coherent memory regions to crash memory ranges
Accelerator devices like GPU and FPGA cards contain onboard memory. This onboard memory is represented as a memory only NUMA node, integrating it with core memory subsystem. Since, the link through which these devices are integrated to core memory goes down after a system crash and they are meant for user workloads, avoid adding coherent device memory regions to crash memory ranges. Without this change, makedumpfile tool tries to save unaccessible coherent device memory regions, crashing the system.
