I insert a module which would trigger a kernel crash, in this module 
I use request_irq（irq, myinterrupt, ...）to register a irq on the nic, and in the function myinterrupt I 
just write something at somewhere (int *p = 00202020; *p = 10), the kernel would crash soon , but I cann't open the /proc/vmcore with crash utility after warm reboot, the error look like:  
   --> crash: invalid kernel virtual address: 5fb001 type:	"pgd page"
