One already has to specify command line arguments to enable kdump.

Yes, so what?

The problem with your patch is that now to enable kdump, I have to know that there's a second command line option and if my firmware is "broken" or not. The former is already a problem (how do I even know such a thing exists?) but the latter is almost impossible to solve from user point of view. And if I have a "broken" firmware, kdump won't work no matter what options I pass.

I really don't see what's practical about that.
