With further investigation, the failure after applying Tom's patch is
caused by OOM. When increase crashkernel reservation to 512M, kdump
kernel can boot successfully. I noticed your crashkernel reservation is
256M, that will fail and stuck there very possibly.

So Tom's patch can fix the issue. We need further check why much more
crashkernel memory is needed on those AMD boxes with sme support..

Thanks
