printk: honor the max_reason field in kmsg_dumper
kmsg_dump() allows to dump kmesg buffer for various system events: oops, panic, reboot, etc. It provides an interface to register a callback call for clients, and in that callback interface there is a field "max_reason", but it was getting ignored when set to any "reason" higher than KMSG_DUMP_OOPS unless "always_kmsg_dump" was passed as kernel parameter. Allow clients to actually control their "max_reason", and keep the current behavior when "max_reason" is not set.
