For memblock_cap_memory_range() to work properly, it should be called
after memory is detected and added to memblock with memblock_add() or
memblock_add_node().  If memblock_cap_memory_range() would be called
before memory is registered, we may silently corrupt memory later
because the crash kernel will see all memory as available.

Print a warning and bail out if ordering is not satisfied.

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
