[PATCH] x86_64: x86_64 add crashdump trigger points
o Start booting into the capture kernel after an Oops if system is in a unrecoverable state. System will boot into the capture kernel, if one is pre-loaded by the user, and capture the kernel core dump. o One of the following conditions should be true to trigger the booting of capture kernel. - panic_on_oops is set. - pid of current thread is 0 - pid of current thread is 1 - Oops happened inside interrupt context.
