For K8 system: 4G RAM with memory hole remapping enabled, or more than 4G RAM installed. when try to use kexec second kernel, and the first doesn't include gart_shutdown. the second kernel could have different aper position than the first kernel. and second kernel could use that hole as RAM that is still used by GART set by the first kernel. esp. when try to kexec 2.6.24 with sparse mem enable from previous kernel (from RHEL 5 or SLES 10). the new kernel will use aper by GART (set by first kernel) for vmemmap. and after new kernel setting one new GART. the position will be real RAM. the _mapcount set is lost.
