adding the parsed path to etc/kdump.conf of kdump initrd 

Steve found a bug. When mount a disk in /var and not specify path
in /etc/kdump.conf, the vmcore will be dumped into /var/crash of
that disk, but not /crash on that disk.

This is because when write the parsed path into /tmp/$$-kdump.conf
in default_dump_target_install_conf() of mkdumprd, it uses below
sed command. So if no path specified at all, this sed command won't
add it to /tmp/$$-kdump.conf. Then in 2nd kernel it will take default
path, namely "/var/crash" as path if no path in /etc/kdump.conf in
2nd kernel.

    sed -i -e "s#$_save_path#$_path#" /tmp/$$-kdump.conf

According to Dave Young's suggestion, erase the old path line and then
insert the parsed path. This can fix it.

v2->v3:
    erase the old path line and then insert the parsed path.

    sed -i -e "s#^path[[:space:]]\+$_save_path##" /tmp/$$-kdump.conf
    echo "path $_path" >> /tmp/$$-kdump.conf

v3->v4:
    Change the sed pattern, erase lines starting with "path" and then
    insert the parsed path.

    sed -i -e "s#^path.*##" /tmp/$$-kdump.conf
    echo "path $_path" >> /tmp/$$-kdump.conf

v4->v5:
    Chaowang suggested using sed command d to remove the whole line
    like below:
    sed -i "/^path/d" /tmp/$$-kdump.conf
    echo "path $_path" >> /tmp/$$-kdump.conf
