Subject: [RFC/RFT PATCH 1/5] s390: make crashk_res resource a child of "System RAM"

From: Mike Rapoport <[email-masked]>

Commit 4e042af463f8 ("s390/kexec: fix crash on resize of reserved memory")
added a comment that says "crash kernel resource should not be part of the
System RAM resource" but never explained why. As it looks from the code in
the kernel and in kexec there is no actual reason for that.

Keeping crashk_res inline with other resources makes code simpler and
cleaner, and allows future consolidation of the resources setup across
several architectures.
