Hi All,
I met the makedumpfile failed in the upstream kernel which contained
this patch. Did I missed something else?
In fedora27 host:

Yup, all better.
Sorry for the mess.
(why, developers not installing shiny new bugs is a whole lot worse:)

Subject: [PATCH] kdump: Write a correct address of mem_section into vmcoreinfo
Depending on configuration mem_section can now be an array or a pointer
to an array allocated dynamically. In most cases, we can continue to refer
to it as 'mem_section' regardless of what it is.
But there's one exception: '&mem_section' means "address of the array" if
mem_section is an array, but if mem_section is a pointer, it would mean
"address of the pointer".
We've stepped onto this in kdump code. VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(mem_section)
writes down address of pointer into vmcoreinfo, not array as we wanted.
Let's introduce VMCOREINFO_ARRAY() that would handle the situation
correctly for both cases.

Fixes: 83e3c48729d9 ("mm/sparsemem: Allocate mem_section at runtime for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_EXTREME=y")
