Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Tying to load a kexec kernel fails with this kind of errors:
Starting kdump-tools:
Unknown type (Reserved) while parsing /sys/firmware/memmap/5/type. Please
report this as bug. Using RANGE_RESERVED now.
Unknown type (Reserved) while parsing /sys/firmware/memmap/1/type. Please
report this as bug. Using RANGE_RESERVED now.
Unknown type (Reserved) while parsing /sys/firmware/memmap/6/type. Please

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Upgrading to 2.0.15 fixes the issue upstream.
(fwiw, ubuntu appears to have done a similar upgrade recently as well,
