crash: let architecture decide crash memory export to iomem_resource
With the generic crashkernel reservation, the kernel emits the following
warning on powerpc:

This warning occurs due to a conflict between crashkernel and System RAM
iomem resources.
The generic crashkernel reservation adds the crashkernel memory range to
/proc/iomem during early initialization. Later, all memblock ranges are
added to /proc/iomem as System RAM. If the crashkernel region overlaps
with any memblock range, it causes a conflict while adding those memblock
regions as iomem resources, triggering the above warning. The conflicting
memblock regions are then omitted from /proc/iomem.
For example, if the following crashkernel region is added to /proc/iomem:
20000000-11fffffff : Crash kernel
then the following memblock regions System RAM regions fail to be inserted:
00000000-7fffffff : System RAM
80000000-257fffffff : System RAM
Fix this by not adding the crashkernel memory to /proc/iomem on powerpc.
Introduce an architecture hook to let each architecture decide whether to
export the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.
For more info checkout commit c40dd2f766440 ("powerpc: Add System RAM
to /proc/iomem") and commit bce074bdbc36 ("powerpc: insert System RAM
resource to prevent crashkernel conflict")
Note: Before switching to the generic crashkernel reservation, powerpc
never exported the crashkernel region to /proc/iomem.
