[PATCH] kdump: cleanups for dump file access in linear raw format Removed the dependency on backup region. Now all the information is encoded in ELF format. /dev/oldmem is a dummy interface. User space tool need to be intelligent enough to parse the elf headers and read the relevant memory areas with the help of /dev/oldmem.
