That removes the possibility of enabling CRASH_DUMP on PPC_BOOK3S_32, even when booting via other mechanisms. Maybe it would be best to just make it not-default? Please take a look at this patch:

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Default to CRASH_DUMP=n when Open Firmware boot is
 likely
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Open Firmware is unable to boot a kernel where PHYSICAL_START is
non-zero, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.

On PPC_BOOK3S_32, the most common way of booting is Open Firmware, so
most users probably don't want CRASH_DUMP. Users booting via some
other mechanism can turn it on explicitly.
