Hmm, we have a use case for kdump, this maybe useful. For example
swiotlb is enabled by default if AMD SME/SEV is active, and in kdump
kernel we have to increase the crashkernel reserved size for the extra
swiotlb requirement. I wonder if we can just reuse the old kernel's
swiotlb region and pass the addr to kdump kernel.
