Hmm. It seems a bit silly to me that we take special care to unmap the
crashkernel from the linear map even when can_set_direct_map() is false, as
we won't be protecting the main kernel at all!

Why don't we just leave the crashkernel mapped if !can_set_direct_map()
and then this problem just goes away?
