On the startup of primary kernel, the memory region used by crash dump
kernel must be specified by "crashkernel=" kernel parameter.
reserve_crashkernel() will allocate and reserve the region for later use.

User space tools, like kexec-tools, will be able to find that region as
        - "Crash kernel" in /proc/iomem, or
        - "linux,crashkernel-base" and "linux,crashkernel-size" under
          /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/chosen

nit: Could we not do this from reserve_crashkernel() ?

Nit: you could move the memblock_reserve() here to a single place.

+       pr_info("Reserving %lldMB of memory at %lldMB for crashkernel\n",
+               crash_size >> 20, crash_base >> 20);
+
+       crashk_res.start = crash_base;
+       crashk_res.end = crash_base + crash_size - 1;

As mentioned above, may be we could move the insert_resource() here, which
would keep the generic setup.c code cleaner and is a bit more reader friendly.
