Do these Fixes have anything with the main target of this patch series
you mentioned in cover-letter:"arm64/riscv: Add support for crashkernel CMA"?
The patches become more and more in each new version, I am wondering if
it relies on these Fixes patches to implement your adding support for
crashkernel CMA on arm64/risc-v.

If not relying on them, could you split them into different patchset
on different purpose? 

Hi Baoquan,

Thank you for your valuable guidance.

You are absolutely right. Most of these fix patches are indeed not
strictly related to the core implementation of the crashkernel CMA
support. They are pre-existing bugs in the surrounding kexec/crash code
that were flagged during our review.

Previously, Andrew suggested taking a look at the code review comments
from the Sashiko AI system, which is why these fixes kept expanding. I
completely agree with your advice that there is no need to keep them
together. I will split them into two completely different patchsets
based on their purpose:

1. A cleaner version of this series, strictly focused on adding the core
crashkernel CMA support for arm64/riscv.

2. One standalone bugfix patchset dedicated entirely to fixing these
pre-existing issues.

By the way, I would also appreciate some advice on how to handle further
AI reviews. It seems that the more code we touch or refactor to fix
these pre-existing issues, the more tangential bugs the AI flags in the
newly exposed areas, making the series extremely difficult to converge.

Should I continue to address all AI-reported bugs associated with the
surrounding code in this series, or should we draw a strict line
and only focus on the core CMA logic moving forward?

Then please post patches to focus on the core implementation of the
crashkernel CMA support. If any AI reported bugs are raised but not
relatd to it, you can add note in cover-letter or explain somewhere
to tell whehter it's caused by the core code and how you want
to deal with it. Otherwise, you could go round and round of new posting
and still can't see when it ends up.
