[Crash-utility] [PATCH v3 0/2] Fix KASLR problem on sadump

Hi,

I know support for guessing the KASLR offset for kdump/diskimages was
deliberately dropped from this patchset, because upstream was also working on
the vmcoreinfo device, but I think having that would be *really* useful.

The vmcoreinfo device solution requires explicit support in the virtualization
Hosts, and it'll take a while until its presence has been generalized among
products and users. Meanwhile, we already have VMs with KASLR-enabled kernels.

So I'd like to ask if a patchset extending the current state of KASLR offset
guessing for sadump to kdump/diskimages would be considered for merging.

Thanks,
Sergio.
