[PATCH] kexec: x86: snapshot registers during crash shutdown
After the kernel panics if we wish to generate an entire machine core file it
is very nice to know the register state at the time the machine crashed.
After long discussion it was realized that if you are going to be saving the
information anyway it is reasonable to store the information in a format that
it will be used and recognized in so the register state is stored in the
standard ELF note format.
