    ppc64: remove rma_top limit

    Restricting kexec tool to allocate hole for kexec segments below 768MB
    may not be relavent now since first memory block size can be 1024MB and
    more.

    Removing rma_top restriction will give more space to find holes for
    kexec segments and existing in-place checks make sure that kexec segment
    allocation doesn't cross the first memory block because every kexec segment
    has to be within first memory block for kdump kernel to boot properly.
