Boris,
Many thanks for the time taken to illustrate for me!
I've one question below.

So in taking this concept and looking at, in particular, patch 4/8
"crash: add generic infrastructure for crash hotplug support", I'm not
exactly sure how to apply this technique.

So I took your patch 4 and maimed into what I think it should look like,
see below.

Now there's a single ifdef there and the registration routines are
wrapped in IS_ENABLED() so that you register a callback only when the
respective stuff - HOTPLUG_CPU or MEMORY_HOTPLUG - is enabled. Otherwise
the couple of functions are unused but that's not that big of a deal.

I've also fixed up some other issues I've encountered along the way.

Holler if there are questions.

HTH.

Why is it safe to examine kexec_crash_image outside the mutex? As I understand it, there is still the (very rare) opportunity for a kdump load/unload initiated via userland and this check to collide. (Similarly, I believe the mutex entry is almost always assured/likely.)
