Subject: [PATCH] Revert "powerpc: Do not call ppc_md.panic in fadump panic notifier"
This reverts commit a3b2cb30f252b21a6f962e0dd107c8b897ca65e4.
The earlier patch tried to fix problems with panic on powerpc in
certain circumstances, where some output from the generic panic code
was being dropped.
Unfortunately, it breaks things worse in other circumstances. In
particular when running a PAPR guest, it will now attempt to reboot
instead of informing the hypervisor (KVM or PowerVM) that the guest
has crashed. The crash notification is important to some
virtualization management layers.
Since the circumstances in which the original patch helped are
somewhat obscure, revert it for now until we figure out how to do it
properly.
