Hi Sergey,

I changed it to make code cleaner:  for such basic operation there are
too many conditions if we will keep it inside the kmsg_dump().
However, if being able to set always_kmsg_dump dynamically during
runtime is deemed important, I can change it back to be checked in
kmsg_dump.

Thank you,
Pasha
