It took me much longer than anticipated (I had some trouble setting up
the host again), but I can confirm that the patch works as expected on
top of 4.11-rc5.

Without the patch, makedumpfile in the crash kernel complains:

/proc/vmcore doesn't contain vmcoreinfo.

With the patch applied, dumping still fails later because of an
unrelated bug in makedumpfile, but I was able to extract the kernel
message buffer with "makedumpfile --dump-dmesg". This already confirms
VMCOREINFO presence and usability.

So finally,

Tested-by: Petr Tesarik <ptesa...@suse.com>
