Subject: calibrate: Do not add KDUMP_PHYS_LOAD to required RAM
Upstream: merged
Git-commit: b70cbda10aa73f72f2324b8f9bf58918b59c9a86

The memory between 0 and KDUMP_PHYS_LOAD is not really allocated to
the panic kernel. It is added to the requirement merely to calculate
the memmap size for pages in this range.
