Crash dumps don't use the new (nor the old) core dump format. Its just
a sequential dump of physical memory + some machine specific state and
is not ordered in "segments" (registers+text+data[+data*] in current core
format).  Support for reading crash dumps is in libkvm.

On the sparc, crash dumps were ok with the sd dump routine. sddump() in
scsi/sd.c is currently incompatible with sparc's dumpsys() usage.
