Manoj Iyer (manjo) wrote : [SRU] kexec: Increase the upper limit for RAM segments

[Impact]
On a newer UEFI based Qualcomm target the number of system ram regions retrieved from /proc/iomem are ~40. Currently KEXEC_SEGMENT_MAX is set to 16, which represents the kexec segments passed to kexec_load syscall, like kernel image, initrd image etc. The patch increases the value to 64.

[Test Case]
NA

[Regression Potential]
Since patches are confined to arm[64] there is a low overall risk of regression.
