Currently, is_kdump_kernel() returns true in crash dump capture kernel
for both kdump and fadump crash dump capturing methods, as both these
methods set elfcorehdr_addr. Some restrictions enforced for crash dump
capture kernel, based on is_kdump_kernel(), are specifically meant for
kdump case and not desirable for fadump - eg. IO queues restriction in
device drivers. So, define is_kdump_kernel() to return false when f/w
assisted adump is active. For fadump case, is_fadump_active() can be
used for capture kernel specific checks.
