mkdumprd: prompt the user to install nfs-utils when mounting NFS fs failed
When nfs-utils is not installed, mounting as NFS fs would fail.
Currently, the error message is not user-friendly,
mount: /tmp/mkdumprd.HyPGpS/target: bad option; for several filesystems (e.g. nfs, cifs) you might need a /sbin/mount.<type> helper program.
kdump: Failed to mount on xxx for kdump preflight check.
kdump: mkdumprd: failed to make kdump initrd
Prompt the user to install nfs-utilsa in the error message,
kdump: Failed to mount on xxx for kdump preflight check. Please make sure nfs-utils has been installed.
