While prepare_elf64_headers() in x86 looks pretty generic for other architectures' use, it contains some code which tries to list crash memory regions by walking through system resources, which is not always architecture agnostic. To make this function more generic, the related code should be purged. In this patch, prepare_elf64_headers() simply scans crash_mem buffer passed and add all the listed regions to elf header as a PT_LOAD segment. So walk_system_ram_res(prepare_elf64_headers_callback) have been moved forward before prepare_elf64_headers() where the callback, prepare_elf64_headers_callback(), is now responsible for filling up crash_mem buffer. Meanwhile exclude_elf_header_ranges() used to be called every time in this callback it is rather redundant and now called only once in prepare_elf_headers() as well.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
