IA64 kdump kernel failed to initialize /proc/vmcore in 2.6.28-rc2.
A bug was introduced in this patch commit:
d9a9855d0b06ca6d6cc92596fedcc03f8512e062
always reserve elfcore header memory in crash kernel
The problem was that the call to reserve_elfcorehdr() should be placed
in CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP rather than in CONFIG_CRASH_KERNEL, which does
not exist.
