[PATCH 2/3] powerpc/fadump: Don't update the user-specified memory limit

[Aneesh Kumar K.V (IBM)]

If the user specifies the memory limit, the kernel should honor it such
that all allocation and reservations are made within the memory limit
specified. fadump was breaking that rule. Remove the code which updates
the memory limit such that fadump reservations are done within the
limit specified.
