Subject: [PATCH v7 4/5]: core: Add kernel message dumper to call on oopses
and panics
The core functionality is implemented as per Linus suggestion from
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2009-October/027620.html
(with the dump_kmsg implementation by Linus). A struct kmsg_dumper has
been added which contains a callback to dump the kernel log buffers on
crashes. The dump_kmsg function gets called from oops_exit() and panic()
and invokes this callbacks with the crash reason.

ChangeLog:
* (The other patches are sent only to linux-mtd since they are really
just mtdoops-specific now)
* (Linus) remove the priv pointer in the structure and
let users determine the address of their own structure
