The check '(crashk_res.parent != NULL)' is added by
commit e05bd3367bd3 ("kexec: fix Oops in crash_shrink_memory()"), but it's
stale now. Because if 'crashk_res' is not reserved, it will be zero in
size and will be intercepted by the above 'if (new_size >= old_size)'.

Ago:
        if (new_size >= end - start + 1)

Now:
        old_size = (end == 0) ? 0 : end - start + 1;
        if (new_size >= old_size)
