When use "--message-level 31" to do a kdump compressed dump, printing
message is not correct any more. Free pages number is doubled as below.
Original pages : 0x000000000007539c
Excluded pages : 0x00000000000d986a
Pages filled with zero : 0x0000000000001196
Cache pages : 0x0000000000025008
Cache pages + private : 0x0000000000004baa
User process data pages : 0x00000000000127d0
Free pages : 0x000000000009c352
Hwpoison pages : 0x0000000000000000
Remaining pages : 0xfffffffffff9bb32
(The number of pages is reduced to 38418230895101%.)
Memory Hole : 0x000000000000ac62
--------------------------------------------------
Total pages : 0x000000000007fffe
After review code, it's caused by update_cyclic_region. This function calls
exclude_unnecessary_pages_cyclic to set partial_bitmap2, then free pages are
counted. But when write the 1st bitmap, it's also called though it is
useless, and pfn_free add free pages number. Here add a new function
update_cyclic_region_without_exclude which is used to set partial_bitmap1
specifically.
