We replace "reserved_memory= 8192" with

in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf used by "lvm2", this can save 7MB peak memory
consumption, so we lower the possibility of kdump OOM.
For kdump, we don't have too many lvm targets, lvm2 locates in the
RAM(rootfs), so don't need that much memory, as discussed with lvm
people, they agree that we can use 1MB under kdump as long as there
are not so many lvm targets invloved.
We modify /etc/lvm/lvm.conf when "99kdumpbase" install() is executed,
because it is parsed after "90lvm" by dracut.

The code is setting reserved_memory = 1024 unconditionally, not only for
relacing 8192 with 1024, need update the commit to match the code. Also
the line is too long as well.
+ sed -i -e
's/\(^[[:space:]]*\)reserved_memory[[:space:]]*=[[:space:]]*[[:digit:]]*/ \
+ \1reserved_memory = 1024/' ${initdir}/etc/lvm/lvm.conf
&>/dev/null
Nitpick, this can be changed to 80 columns alignment, like move sed -i
-e in a seperate line.
