The goal is to allow for a snapshot capture to be taken at the time
of the crash, while the print out can happen at a later time through
the exposed devcoredump virtual device.
v2: Addressing these Matthew comments:
- Handle memory allocation failures.
- Do not use GFP_ATOMIC on cases like debugfs prints.
- placement of @reg doc.
- identation issues.
v3: checkpatch
v4: Rebase and get back to GFP_ATOMIC only.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
