Hari Bathini 78589a3207 kdump: Check whether or not to invoke capturing vmcore 
The script dracut-kdump.sh is  responsible for capturing vmcore during
second kernel boot.  Currently this  script  gets installed into kdump
initrd as part of kdumpbase dracut module.

With fadump support, 'dracut-kdump.sh' script also gets installed into
default initrd to capture  vmcore generated by firmware assisted dump.
Thus in fadump case, the  same initrd is  going to be used for  normal
boot as well as boot after system crash. Hence a  check is required to
see if it is a normal boot or boot after crash.

A new node "ibm,kernel-dump" is added, to the device tree, by firmware
to notify kernel if it is booting after crash.  The below patch adds a
check for this node  before executing  steps to  capture vmcore.  This
check will help bypassing  the vmcore capture steps during normal boot
process.
