Hello Lei,

Thanks for making patch. I'll check your patch this week, but I have
two things to ask you.

1. I don't know arm architecture at all and I don't have arm
machine. What I can do is only testing common part and regression test
on x86 architecture. Please maintain arm part yourself.

2. Could you tell me specific kernel versions you have tested this
patch in? I myself have yet to do this, but now I think it necessary
to make such a list. I imagine just like makedumpfile's SUPPORTED
KERNELS described in its README. I'll put them in gcore's README and
then ask Dave to add them into description in distribution page.

Thanks.
HATAYAMA, Daisuke
