Sorry, I missed to take into account the case of !CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE.

 #else /* !CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE */
 struct pt_regs;
 struct task_struct;
+static inline void __crash_kexec(struct pt_regs *regs) { }
 static inline void crash_kexec(struct pt_regs *regs) { }
 static inline int kexec_should_crash(struct task_struct *p) { return 0; }

I'll resend the revised version later.
