Hi, Dmitry.

Previously, I sent a patch to fix this issue. You can refer it in
following link.

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2015-July/013960.html

And this patch is fixed from kexec.

If crash_map_reserved_pages fails to map reserved memory, is it
necessary to continue the process on s390? If no, it is better to enter
the error handle path, then return. Thus there is no need to pass the
parameter to indicate the error or not.

It is fine to cleanup this function. And add the logic into function
crash_unmap_reserved_pages.
