Commit 0212f9159694 (x86: Add Crash kernel low reservation) introduced reserve_crashkernel_low. This is used to reserve crash kernel memory either if crashkernel=size,low is given on the command line or if the region reserved by reserve_crashkernel is entirely above 4G.
reserve_crashkernel_low tries to find a block of low_size bytes. But there seems to be no good reason to restrict the lower bound of the range to low_size. Make memblock_find_in_range search from the start of memory.
