It seems that actually there has been no patches for RT kernels for a
long time, but..

..also seems it does not break completely.

Thanks. Not sure but the full is possibly helpful.

hmm, I'm not sure what is being read and why it's invalid from the
last error message. Probably you need to debug it somehow.
Just out of curiosity, what happens with crash --no_panic option?
It skips some collection of data.

Yes, it should work with the old implementations. Please see dump_log(),
which determines which implementation is used in the kernel.
