Die or panic path in system reset handler dumps kernel log to nvram, since commit 4388c9b3a6ee ("powerpc: Do not send system reset request through the oops path") system reset request is not allowed to take die path if fadump or kdump is configured, hence we miss dumping kernel log to nvram, call kmsg_dump() before carrying out fadump or kdump.
