Re: [Fastboot] [2/2] kdump: Save trap information for later analyzis

[Alexander Nyberg <alexn@telia.com>]

If we are faulting in kernel it is quite possible this will lead to a
panic. Save trap number, cr2 (in case of page fault) and error_code in
the current thread (these fields already exist for signal delivery but
are not used here). 

This helps later kdump crash analyzing from user-space (a script has
been submitted to dig this info out in gdb).
