[PATCH 2/2] powerpc: avoid adjusting memory_limit for capture kernel memory reservation

Currently, if memory_limit is specified and it overlaps with memory to
be reserved for capture kernel, memory_limit is adjusted to accommodate
capture kernel. With memory reservation for capture kernel moved later
(after enforcing memory limit), this adjustment no longer holds water.
So, avoid adjusting memory_limit and error out instead.
