+ Disable device dump. Device dump allows drivers to
+ append dump data to vmcore so you can collect driver
+ specified debug info. Drivers can append the data
+ without any limit and this data is stored in memory,
+ so this may cause significant memory stress. Disabling

+ data will be no longer available. This parameter
+ is only available when CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE_DEVICE_DUMP
+ is set.
