Perhaps you could also look into somehow guarding the call of
dev_coredumpm(), that this commit added, with checks for
CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP. See, I had a quick look at all this and selecting
WANT_DEV_COREDUMP might not be enough, because DISABLE_DEV_COREDUMP can
still, well, disable DEV_COREDUMP. Or am I misreading the Kconfig
symbols that regulate DEV_COREDUMP?

Thanks,
