I see that "nokaslr" will disable it at run time. I remember that we
had discussions that it can be used as a work around. But I don't see
kexec-tools or fedora kdump scripts appending "nokaslr" in kdump case.
That's strange.
Chao, would you remember anything about it.
Thomas, can you please test kexec with "nokaslr" specified in command
line. This can atleast get you going for now till the problem is actually
fixed.
Thanks
Vivek
