The following solution removes the gfp_t parameter of dev_coredumpv(), 
dev_coredumpm() and dev_coredumpsg() and change the gfp_t parameter of 
kzalloc() in dev_coredumpm() to GFP_KERNEL, in order to show that these 
functions can not be used in atomic context.

What's more, I move the operations that may sleep into a work item and use
schedule_work() to call a kernel thread to do the operations that may sleep.
