Seems that I had replied Chao's question in another email. The naming
follows the function parse_crashkernel_simple(), as the notes above
the definition
/*
* That function parses "simple" (old) crashkernel command lines like
*
* crashkernel=size[@offset]
*
* It returns 0 on success and -EINVAL on failure.
*/
static int __init parse_crashkernel_simple(char *cmdline,
Do you have alternative suggestion?

Thank you for the kindly review.
