Hi Dave, I'm really sorry for not adding the kexec list, I forgot. But I
will do next time for sure, my apologies. And thanks for taking a look
after you noticed that on lore, I appreciate your feedback!

That makes sense, I'll improve that in a follow-up patch, how about
that? Indeed it's a good idea to let people be sure that panic_print
might affect kdump reliability, although I consider the risk to be
pretty low. And I'll loop the kexec list for sure!
