Commit 59d58189f3d9 ("crash: fix crash memory reserve exceed system

higher than system RAM, which makes the memory_limit adjustment code
ineffective due to an early exit from reserve_crashkernel().
Regardless lets not violated the user-specified memory limit by
adjusting it. Remove this adjustment to ensure all reservations stay
within the limit. Commit f94f5ac07983 ("powerpc/fadump: Don't update
the user-specified memory limit") did the same for fadump.Agreed. Reviewed-by: Mahesh Salgaonkar <mahesh@linux.ibm.com> Thanks, -Mahesh.
