+ * The e820 map is the map that gets modified e.g. with command line parameters
+ * and that is also registered with modifications in the kernel resource tree
+ * with the iomem_resource as parent.
+ *
+ * The e820_saved is directly saved after the BIOS-provided memory map is
+ * copied. It doesn't get modified afterwards. It's registered for the
+ * /sys/firmware/memmap interface.
+ *
+ * That memory map is not modified and is used as base for kexec. The kexec'd
+ * kernel should get the same memory map as the firmware provides. Then the
+ * user can e.g. boot the original kernel with mem=1G while still booting the
+ * next kernel with full memory.
