2008-09-05sh: Add vmlinux crash dump supportMagnus Damm
This patch adds SuperH crash dump support. The vmlinux loader is modified with crash dump hooks as on other architectures. SuperH does not need any backup region, so only the elf header is allocated from the top of the reserved memory window. The actual size of the memory window is passed to the secondary kernel on the command line using "mem=". The secondary kernel must be configured to match the reserved memory window, change kernel parameters CONFIG_MEMORY_START and CONFIG_MEMORY_SIZE. Linux-2.6.27 should be usable as primary kernel on SuperH, later kernel versions are needed to fully support secondary kernel /proc/vmcore.
